<h1>
Debian Linux Kernel Handbook
<br>Chapter 1 - About this handbook
</h1>
<hr>
<h2><a name="s1.1"></a>1.1 Scope</h2>
<p>
The main goal of this handbook is to serve as a single access point to all
kernel-related documentation. It contains the information about the Debian
packaging of Linux kernel for Debian 7.0 (wheezy). The latest released version
is always available from <code><a
href="http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org">http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org</a></code>.
Note that this is a work in progress, and some information is inaccurate.
</p>
<p>
Some of the commands mentioned in the text must be executed with superuser
priviliges, either by becoming the <samp>root</samp> user or by using
<samp>sudo</samp>. To distinguish between commands which may be executed by an
unprivileged user and those requiring superuser privileges, commands are
prepended by <samp>$</samp> or <samp>#</samp> respectively. This symbol is not
a part of the command.
</p>

href="http://alioth.debian.org/projects/kernel-handbook">kernel-handbook</a></code>
project on <code><a href="http://alioth.debian.org">Alioth</a></code>. The
SGML source of the book may be checked out from the Debian <code><a
