Hi.

Im currently downloading the latest en.iso of 3.4 (using 3.3 at the moment) with the intention to hdd install again.

From what I have read I just use "knoppix26" at boot to boot into knoppix with the 2.6 kernel then hdd install from here, set up grub and voilla a 2.6 kernel.

Surely its not this easy ?!?

If this ^^^ isnt they way to do it, is their an easier way then compiling it myself? (I have never done it and am scared!)

I also read that $"apt-get install kernel-image-2.6.6-1-k7" will work. Again, surely it cant be this easy.

If by some goodness both these ^^^ methods work, which would you suggest I use.

Also, is their anything I should consider before using 2.6.xxx?? Hardware issues, kernel panics etc???

Thanks for reading this.
