It's a perfectly reasonable thing to want, since that way you get Debianized kernel-image packages with any settings that the Debian kernel maintainers consider useful (i.e. the settings in the distributed kernel-image packages). Such packages exist, as you would see if you did a simple 'apt-cache search kernel-source'. I believe 2.2.14 may have been removed due to security holes, but I'm not sure. You might try using make-kpkg (in kernel-package) on the normal kernel source, which will give you a Debian package. If you want the Debian default configuration, try getting the 2.2.15 source package and copying its config.h. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
