Why can I not find kernel-image

  • 772

I'm attempting to remotly install Debian Etch on a CentOS system using the tutorial here, when I get to the steps:

apt-cache search kernel-image
...
apt-get -y install kernel-image-2.6-686

apt is unable to find the kernel-image package in the repos. I'm finding it hard to believe that it's gone,am I doing something wrong, has the package been renamed, or is there another way to do this?

debian apt

    It should be named linux-image-{version}-{arch}, i.e.: linux-image-2.6-686.
