I'm doing a clean install today and noticed a version mismatch in the
Debian packages at Brian's site.
The tools seem to be compiled to version 12, but the lsm patch for
kernel 2.4.18 is version 11. The patches for 2.4.19 and 2.4.20 are
version 12, it's only the 2.4.18 that is affected.
This is ugly because woody doesn't contain source packages for 19 or
20, only for 2.4.18

I think 2.4.18 is no longer supported anymore. The patch should probably
get deleted from the package. Russell?

You could use the prepatched kernels (source and image) already
on my website...
Both 2.4.19 and 2.4.20 are available, although I haven't yet been able
to test 2.4.20 properly, one of my computers is very unstable with
2.4.20, and I am not yet certain why. It could be hardware related, but
it sure is weird that is only crashes with 2.4.20, and never crashed
yet with 2.4.19.

I would have, but they don't show up in the package list (in dselect)
and I couldn't find them on the website, either.
Is there a reason for this, is that a bug, or am I missing something?
I'd love to use the prepatched kernels for my tutorial, because it will
obviously save a lot of time.

What is your /etc/apt/sources.list entry?
Do you have a /etc/apt/preferences file (its not required, and might
be causing problems if you have one thats incorrect)?
The package names in question are:
kernel-source-2.4.19 version 2.4.19-4.bam.9
kernel-source-2.4.20 version 2.4.20-2.bam.2
kernel-image-2.4.19-* version 1:2.4.19-4.bam.2
kernel-image-2.4.20-* version 1:2.4.20-2.bam.2
(replace * with the appropriate version).

no such file.

Ah, they're in main, so I need to add main to the sources.list entry.
Faye, are you reading? This should be added to your HOWTO.

Sounds reasonable to me.

If you use a package that's outside woody then it's reasonable to expect that
you may need other supporting packages from outside of woody.
I don't think that we need to change anything at the moment, other than
possibly removing 2.4.18.
