Add this to your /etc/apt/sources.list file for the kernel image: # Kanotix deb http://kanotix.com/files/debian/ ./ deb-src http://kanotix.com/files/debian/ ./ Don't forget to do an apt-get update. You should probably delete/comment them out after you get the kernel though. However I'm not sure that they will be compatable. Ubuntu has a nasty habit of only being compatable with Ubuntu. (Even though it was originally based on Debian). I would still recommend Kanotix over Ubuntu - if only due to the comparatively minimal amout of time and effort required to set it up.
