I used "apt-cache show" to learn the location of the kernel-image 2.6.12 package. Then dpkg -i installed it. Then I rebooted. I was very happy to see the system come up again. At that point apt -f install was able to finish fixing things. Many thanks to Steve and Sean for help and pointers. -- Jeff Jeff Abrahamson <http://www.purple.com/jeff/> +1 215/837-2287 GPG fingerprint: 1A1A BA95 D082 A558 A276 63C6 16BF 8C4C 0D1D AE4B Attachment:
