Installing a kernel is easy.

you can't install a new kernel. If you have a linux directory.

Hi!
Can someone tell me step by step how to install a new kernel in Debian.
I know how to do it in Slackware but it seems to be a little different in

Hi all,
I am trying to compile a custom kernel for the usual reasons. I am not seeing
any errors during the
compile, installation or boot phases, but some of the modules won't install.
Here are the steps I took
to compile the kernel:

mv /vmlinuz

Something I know how to answer!! You'll need to download netscape for Linux
from home.netscape.com. You can find it by following the menu choices -- it's
layed out pretty good. I suggest you place the tar-file in root's home
directory
or a subdirectory thereof, then make a symbolic link to it

Whatever happened to the Debian pgp package? I got one last summer
(Debian-1.1 section non-free) which was made by a Brit and contained
pgp-2.6.2 (i and us). I would like to upgrade if possible (2.6.3 is around,
maybe higher). But a Debian package for pgp is nowhere to be found.
Any clues?

Ok, the story goes like this: You compile your applet with guavac/javac and

I have two questions:
1) has something changed in the way dselect/dpkg installs packages.
In the past, dpkg used to choose the best order to install packages so
as to avoid dependancy problems. Now, when installing packages with
dselect, this is not done. For example, I recently installed emacs

This is *not* a flame. This list is kind of touchy lately. It's just
that I'm a big fan of bash (with vi editting mode instead of emacs) and
if there's a better shell out there I'd like to give it a try. It just
doesn't sound like zsh has anything to offer that bash doesn't.
