Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-13-amd64-k8-smp (2.6.8-17sarge1)

Linux kernel image for version 2.6.8 on AMD64 SMP systems

This package contains the Linux kernel image for version 2.6.8 on AMD Opteron, the corresponding System.map file, and the modules built by the packager. It also contains scripts that try to ensure that the system is not left in a unbootable state after an update.

If you have a multi-processor, AMD based 64bit system, you might want to install this kernel.

If you wish to update a bootdisk, or to use a bootloader to make installing and using the image easier, we suggest you install the latest fdutils (for formatting a floppy to be used as boot disk), and LILO, for a powerful bootloader. Of course, both these are optional.

Kernel image packages are generally produced using kernel-package, and it is suggested that you install that package if you wish to create a custom kernel from the sources.
