Hello everyone, 

I was wondering if it's possible to copy the vmlinuz-x.y.z from one machine to 
another and have the other machine run properly with it.  Here's the scenario:

I have 2 systems, both running Debian 3.1 (Sarge), and their hardware is a 
little different from each other.  Suppose my machine is running a 2.4.x kernel 
and the other a 2.6.x kernel, can I simply copy the /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.x kernel 
over to my machine's /boot directory, make the appropriate changes to 
/boot/grub/menu.lst and have it work as if I had installed it through apt or 
dpkg?

If anyone has actually tried this and got their machines to work, I would like 
to know what and how you did it.

Thanks,
-Glen
