Sarge Kernel Sources

[Bailz]

I recently installed Debian 3.1 with kernel version 2.4.27 and I'm trying to install the kernel sources for setting up my video drivers and wireless card. I don't currently have access to the internet from Debian.

I downloaded the sources from here but when I try:

dpkg -i kernel-sources...

It says that Verification of the package failed and it doesn't install.

Can someone give me some pointers?

It would seem that the package you downloaded is the right, however you can try to re-download it, but this from here.

Then the usual :

dpkg -i kernel-source-2.4.27_2.4.27-10sarge5_all.deb

However, can't you configure the access to Internet first ? Which wireless card is that ? I very doubt it will work at all using a 2.4 Linux kernel.

Perhaps the md5sum verification of the package you downloaded failed.

It's a Belkin F5D7000uk which uses the RT2500 chipset so I need the kernel sources to compile the driver for it. (I don't have a long enough Ethernet cable to reach the router )

Cheers for the reply,
