    if you are using the sarge install disc, you can install using the 2.6
    kernel.

    when you get to the boot prompt for the installer, instead of just
    hitting enter, you could type "linux26" to procede with a 2.6 kernel
    install.

    hitting the f? keys (where ? = 1-6) at the boot prompt gives you more
    options and information about what the install is doing.
