HiCan one update the kernel without compiling ?. It has less risks ( for the beginner). I prefer install an updated image ( perhaps a patch using Synaptic or apt-get install XXXXX ? ).
You need to customize your kernel to do you must change it in the
boot.img . You can found a good tutorial on knoopix.org . Don't forget
to compile your hown cloop.o and to apply the knoppix_patch before make
bzImage and after make menuconfig .
to mount your boot.img :
mount -t msdos boot.img <mount point> -o loop=/dev/loop0
you can try it with vmware Your kernel must be little ( not enought space on the boot.img to do a
kernel more than 960 Ko )
Good luck richard From france ;)

Hi.
I'm using kernel-image-2.6.3-1-k7 on a Knoppix-3.3 hd-install. I'd like to install the nvidia drivers but there aren't binary packages available yet. So, I think I will have to build it myself. Will I have to build my custom kernel to build nvidia driver as kernel module? http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/Debian-nVidia/installation.html points to a guide that suggests just this. Please advice. Tnx.
