every time I've tried Ubuntu with a different kernel... it has problems. 
  Ubuntu has a fancy initrd, modules, lots of patches, Upstart as init, 
and who knows what assumptions about the boot process... but maybe.  I 
could use the kernel from the Ubuntu development branch, if I had any 
idea how to use APT to upgrade just a few specific things from an 
unstable package-source and not my whole system (the kernel binary 
obviously doesn't depend on system libraries, so it should be uniquely 
easy to do this...).  Do you know about debians -- if that's possible?
