i have the debian 3.0 seven disk ditro (which is an installation set for both kernels 2.2.18 or 2.4, i.e. both potato and woody).
i am currently running debian with kernel 2.2.15.
i would like to do a kernel upgrade to 2.4 without having to re-partition disks etc.
Hello,
Take a look at the URL given below. I am not an expert on debian but I think it will help :-)

If you have the kernel sources then you can do the following steps to upgrade the kernel:
1. tar xzf linux-2.4.x-y.tar.gz 2. cd linux 3. make config 4. make-kpkg clean 5. time make-kpkg --revision=custom.2.4.x-y kernel_image 6. cd .. 7. dpkg -i kernel-image-2.4.x-y.deb
