It's a 16-bit assembler that is needed for the kernel's boot sector. It's part
of the "bin86" package, and yes, you can install it via apt-get.

as86 is a 16-bit assembler for x86-architecture. You can install it with
apt-get install bin86.
as86 is not needed anymore for compiling 2.4-series kernels, t
as86 is the assembler for 80x86 processors. It is included in the bin86
package in potato.
apt-get install bin86
binutils contains as, which is the GNU assembler. I don't know if that
will support the kernel source, however.

I wondered this myself once, enough to file a bug against kernel-package.
But it is a design decision as Debian runs on many pla
yikes! I just compiled a kernel, and I know it
works because I did make zdisk and it boots and
it detects my soundblaster CD ROM drive, but when
I cp the image to /floppy/linux and run
./rdev.sh, it says "invalid or corrupt kernel
image"
how do I copy the kernel image that I compiled
onto the rescu
