getting into confusing territory here. i couldn't find a kernel image
uasing aptitude and apt-getting the kernel image already installed
(2.4.26-1-386) i get the message that it is already installed. So I'm
not sure what to do. was going to go in search of the latest 2.6 kernel
filename but i think i'll dwell a pause.
incidentally, aptitude is saying it wants to remove the existing kernel
image because of unmet dependancies. can that be rectified without
reinstalling?
TIA
Mike
