Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-2-sparc32 (2.4.27-9sarge1) [security]

Linux kernel binary image for sun4c, sun4m and sun4d

This package contains the Linux kernel image, the 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 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 SILO, 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.

NOTE: sparc32 includes virtually all non-UltraSPARC systems. If you do not have an UltraSPARC, this is most likely the kernel you want.
