Sorry to bother you with this howto question.

The particular issue I want to test is whether this kernel solves a boot-time crash in the pata_sc1200 module. It should; 2.6.31.6 contains a fix from Alan Cox for this.

Since this is a boot-time crash, I have not been able to install Karmic on the machine in question (a Soekris net4801 - www.soekris.com).

So it's currently running Intrepid. Can you help me install this Karmic kernel on the Intrepid system?

It's OK if it trashes the system; this is a test machine anyway.

Thanks a lot.
