yes you can upgrade and there are patches. > Can someone please tell the site and the procedure for > kernel upgrades. I suggest that you go to http://www.au.debian.org/doc/ and read the installation manual at http://www.au.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/install which will give you a good introduction to what debian is and how to install it. Particular information about apt and debians package management system can be found at http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/quick-reference/ch-system.en.html#s-uptodate and http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/index.en.html > 3.

If you want to do it that way I suggest searching on google. Personally I just install the stable distribution, which is what you have and upgrade over the internet. You can simply install the kernel image that you want from the debian servers or even install the source and compile the kernel yourself!
