It's a simple apt-get install, and, at least when using lilo, you'll
probably need to add a few lines in the /etc/lilo.conf file, followed by
running /sbin/lilo -- if no changes are needed to the confige, you'll
have to run /sbin/lilo too
I don't know what needs to change when using GRUB.
Very ver important to change lilo.conf (preferebly by adding a paragraph
for the new kernel, not replacing the old one, so you can retreat if you
have to. And remember to reun lilo as well.
HTH,
