After installing Potato on my IBM 1300i laptop I try
to do the upgrade and it seems all the packages
upgrade but the kernel is still 2.2.
How do I also make it upgrade to the newer kernel or I
am just doing something wrong with the upgrade.
Thanks,

I had to change my sources.list file to say "woody". After
this I ran apt-get update, then apt-get dist-upgrade. All
