I have this 6 cd set also.  The set, in fact, does have the 2.0.30 kernel
present.  You need to find the directory with the 2.0.30 rescue disk and
driver disk images and use these two along with the 5 base disks to make
the initial installation.  You can then continue with dselect to install
the 2.0.30 source files along with any other utilities or programs.

I got the "Official CD" from the ftp site in August.  It has an 1.3.1
directory in it.  I took great pain to install from that directory.
Then I found out that it is symlinked to 1.3.

Anyway, I put hamm on one of my machine.  And it still shows 1.3 at
bootup.

Infomagic did not recieve _any_ master disk from Debian. They made one on
their own.

FYI (Infomagic's debian outdated.)

1997-10-29 Thread Ali Hamisheh-Bahar
hi all,

(This is from a newbie, but i've checked this list's archives of the last two
months -- as well as the postings for the last two days -- to ensure that
no-one has mentioned this before. If otherwise, i apologize.)

i got the August '97 version of the Infomagic 6-CD set. It claims to have
Debian 1.3.1 & kernel 2.0.30, but it clearly has the Debian 1.3 & kernel
2.0.29. (This is confirmed by running uname, by the output of the X server, and
by the output of the boot sequence, and by ) Infomagic suggests that the
master disk which they received from debian was incorrect.

  This is purely FYI and is *my* observation alone -- so take it with as many
grains of salt as you see fit. I am informing people in order to save some
folks the hassels which i went thru -- i needed the very _latest_ Mach64 X
server!

regards,
ali
