I did all of the above (see attached copy of my /etc/apt/sources.list file) and I got way past the original obstacle in the way of upgrading my kernel, but the installation encountered some errors (see attached file "Errors_installing_kernel-image-2.4.20-32.txt"). Any further hints? Best regards, Jaime
