http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/dis....0/UPGRADE.TXT. That should help. After you upgrade, you may want to use something like http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=16214 to stay current.

Kernel Upgrade
----------------------------------------------

What's the thumb rule of symbolic link in kernel upgarde?
it should point to latest version
as we have to do ln
to linux & System.map file
What if we delete the kernel files?
Do we have to ln again to other kernel(s)?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to backup existing kernel? I mean which folder/files to save.
