<0> I suggest you find out how many releases Debian actually has.
<1> dist-upgrade usually works. Usually.
<2> I have an installation called Woody, it came with kernel 2.4
<2> Now I want to upgrade to sarge and kernel 2.6
<2> I know that if I just compile kernel 2.6 it will not work..tried already
<2> it will complain about module-tools and stuff..
<2> So I need to upgrade some other things first .. before compiling the kernel
<2> There must be a upgrade procedure ?
<1> change woody to sarge in your sources.list file, do an apt-get update, then an upgrade. Then apt-cache search kernel-image|grep 2.6 and pick your kernel. Apt-get install kernel-image-i386-2.6.14.2 (making up a name here) should get you everything you need to kick your kernel up to the next major version.
<1> From there, a dist-upgrade is usually sufficient.
<2> aha
<2> And then it should work to compile new kernel also becuase all needed tools are there ?
<1> who said anything about compiling a kernel? You shouldn't NEED to.
<2> no need?
<1> want, maybe. Need? Not usually.
<0> *sighs*
<2> don't I need to specify which drivers and network modules I want the kernel to support ?
<1> poppor_ : nope... the debian kernels come with damn near everything modularized for you.
<2> hmm
<2> I have always needed to do that myself before
<2> maybe things have changed :)
<2> ok.. I'll try and see what happens
<2> thanks for the help!
