In the past, as a Slackware user, I never installed an OS where I
didn't immediately compile a new kernel. Slack uses a 2.4 kernel, and
I use some peripheral items which seem to require, or at least greatly
prefer a 2.6 kernel. The

Hi Patrick,
Hello John,
I always compile my own kernels the Debian (testing) way like this:
-Install the latest Debian linux-source package (currently
linux-source-2.6.17); or you can use vanilla source as you describe
-Make a symlink

This makes me think. Recently I have gotten in the habit, after

I have never used initrd, at least not when I have compiled a kernel.
To be entirely honest I have never fully understood just what it
does. I was under the impression it was for things like booting from
reiser fs and having to load modules to do it.

I have a laptop with Celeron M processor within. My question is: what processor type should I select when compiling the kernel? Pentium M even though it's just Celeron M?
Hiya LV,
I have been using 2.6.15 for about a week now. It's fantastic. Seems to
be faster than 2.6.8. I have scanning, sound, USB, cd burning, rsync,
nfs. All works well. I used the kernel from kernel.org. I didn't bother
with the ramdisk. Seems to be a waste of time.
