I see it. Ok, I've installed linux-image-2.6.12-1-386 by itself. I did try selecting this package w/all the 'Mark for Upgrade' stuff, but I got same error as before.
However, now I get: Preparing to replace udev 0.056-3 (using .../archives/udev_0.068-2_i386.deb) ...udev requires a kernel >= 2.6.12, upgrade aborted. dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/udev_0.068-2_i386.deb (--unpack): subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/udev_0.068-2_i386.deb Since it's still not finding the new kernel, do I just need to reboot? And should I remove the older kernel package before doing so? Will Grub be automatically configured to point to the new image? Thanks...
