Is 2.4 supported in potato?(Meaning just download the kernel and recompile
it) or it's going to be in woody only..

Thanks for the recommandation.. but is the var having 150Mb too little?
using dselect, access with apt.. I can't install stuffs bigger that the var
size.. as it seems to first cache the stuff in the /var/cache and then
install it.
or should I link /var to /usr/var ?
