Kernel upgrade 2.4 -> 2.6

[eris_pluvia]

I've installed Knoppix 3.2 since one year. The kernel is 2.4.25.

Now I want to upgrade to new kernel family 2.6 (2.6.10). The straightforward "apt-get"-ing doesn't word: system hangs at boot time; moreover, during instalation, a warning about modprobe is showed.

What should I do?

TIA
