upgrade linux kernel
 
I hve download the new linux kernel , the file called "path-2.6xx.bz2" , but I can't unzip and tar the file , could suggest how to upgrade the kernel ? thx

why can't you unzip the kernel? You can try this:
tar -xjvf file.bz2
After that follow the instructions in the package to upgrade

It's not in tar format. To unzip it...

bzip2 -d yourfile
