Hi, install Package: doc-linux (perhaps only temporarily). fetch a cup of coffee and read $ zless /usr/doc/HOWTO/Firewall-HOWTO.gz for compiling a kernel install Package: kernel-package (it will make your life easier). try following recipe: 1) install a kernel-source package 2) cd /usr/src/linux 3) make xconfig OR make menuconfig OR make config 4) make-kpkg clean 5) make-kpkg -r=custom.1.0 kernel_image 6) dpkg -i ../kernel*.deb then reboot and test.
