My problem is (possibly) three-fold: I dist-upgraded to Sid a few hours ago and haven't fully installed it because udev can not be installed with the 2.6.11 kernel. So, I need the 2.6.12 kernel, but it isn't a kernel-image. So, I must make one myself, which I am quite willing to do.
However, apt-get refuses to do any thing until the udev situation is resolved. And, trying to make my own kernel image require many (many) packages which requires apt-get (to do it via dpkg -i would take a blasted long time indeed). So, I should like to know what I should to do. If I force udev to install with the 2.6.11 kernel, create a 2.6.12 kernel-image, install this, will udev automatically fix itself to work with the 2.6.12 kernel? If not, what should I do? I thank you kindly in advance.
