This is release -0.1 of the kernel howto. Is this document for you? Well, if you've got any of the following symptoms:

- ``Arg! This wizzo-46.5.6 package says it needs kernel 1.1.193 and I've still only got release 1.0!''
- There's a device driver in one of the newer kernels that you just gotta have

- ``Is this stuff in the README really the whole story?''
