Hey, It's been suggested to me (a few times...) to compile a custom Kernel. Now being a Newbie, I am very leery of this. I had downloaded the ded kernel image once and when selecting it to install, it gave me lots of warnings....I got scared and stopped.
First, is this a proper way to install a custom kernel on a functioning linux system or is this just a way to upgrade a kernel image...?? Secondly, if I do decide to hack around with the deb package will this totally F*** my system leaving me to start from scratch -- I built my Debian from total ftp downloads - no CDs! I spent a month finding and downloading everything! I don't want to go there again. At least not so soon!! Rod..... "What to do now? I'm hiding all my flesh!" - Uzeda
