Please set your line-wrapping to something around 72 characters.
You are using the Debian default installation kernel. The description
says:
This is a more compact version of the 2.2.20 kernel image; it is built
with less options enabled, and is originally packaged for the boot
floppies.
Switch to some other image like kernel-image-2.2.20. Use
apt-cache search kernel-image
to get a list and
apt-cache show $packagename
to find out more about the packages.
best regards
