I do not have LAN or USB ports when the 64bit OS is running. Is there a distro that has the newest (upstream) kernel already included? If not, is there a way to slipstream a newer kernel into an existing distro like Bodhi ( that has nearly no apps installed )? If so, can you point me to some documentation to do this?
