Thank's for your answer! I see the formulation of my question was a little mistakable. I will 'learn' to compile my own 2.6.6 kernel. Therefore I was looking different possibilities on the internet (BenH, Bitkeeper, Debian ...). On <http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages> I found the package 'kernel- tree-2.6.6'. Now, I would like to understand the additional benefits of this package compared to 'apt-get install kernel-source kernel-debian-patch'. Kind regards Roland Wegmann [EMAIL PROTECTED]
