Hi,
You have a couple of options. One, make zImage will build the kernel and put
it in arch/i386/boot where you can copy it where ever you like.
There is also a make zdisk which will automatically copy the new kernel to

Have a look at the kernel docs. And good luck.

Hi,
I've got a problem with dselect bombing out on me:
dselect: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0019' near line 1:
newline in field name `#padding'
I can't seem to get past this. I've run dpkg -i --pending but I'm not
sure what the argument should be. I've been installing from a

Hi,
Just deleted the email from the guy who had 400 bogomips for his Pentium
200 MMX with the standard debian kernel, and only 200 after compiling his
own. Could this be because of the CPU type for which the kernel is
optimized? I'd figure that the standard kernel would be only optimized
for 486
i'm running a 2.0.33 kernel from the installation disks and it gives me
400.59 Bogomips for a pentium 200MMX running on a compaq laptop. I
recompiled the kernel and it gave me about 208 bogomips after the new
kernel was recompiled, and the bogomips mystery continued.
btw, i did read the bogo

Mount the filesystem as type "vfat" instead of "msdos". It is more
than a msdos filesystem. Vfat get the long names right.

If your NT box is networked to a machine with a CD writer, consider making
a CD.
There is support in Debian for .zip files (look for the zip package).
I think some zip programs can split up files for multiple floppies.

I have just installed LINUX on another machine in my office. The powers that
be are reluctant at this moment to let me put in on the network. I have
loaded some items down to my NT machine and now need to ship them to my
LINUX box. However they are too big to fit on a floppy. Anyone got any ideas
