New HOWTO: The Linux Kernel HOWTO - page 10
Section 9: Note for upgrade to version 2.0.x, 2.2.x
9. Note for upgrade to version 2.0.x, 2.2.x Kernel versions 2.0.x and 2.2.x introduced quite a bit of changes for kernel installation. The file Documentation/Changes in the 2.0.x source tree contains information that you should know when upgrading to either of these versions. You will most likely need to upgrade several key packages, such as gcc, libc, and SysVInit, and perhaps alter some system files, so expect this. Don't panic, though.
