To move from a 2.0 kernel to 2.2, there are quite a few changes needed.
First, go to suse's ftp site and download all the updates, especially
the kernmod, devs, and lx_suse packages. Best to get all the updates.
The lx_suse package contains the source for the 2.2.5 kernel. You will
need the full source; it is not possible to patch from 2.0 to 2.2.
Also, the kernmod package is important because the kernel module tools
in it allow you to use modules under 2.2. The old mod tools will not
work. Another good bet is to go to www.linuxhq.com and readup on the
necessary changes to upgrade to 2.2. Read all the docs relevent.
