[Voyage-linux] Watchdog issue

[Sasa]

Hey,

How can I install that kernel ? I really, I mean really really can't
afford voyage to break or something... since i currently can't access it
it's about 100 meters on some tower and i don't have a key.
Should dpkg -i kernel.deb; reboot be sufficient or ?

I will first try without watchdog, so i can eliminate watchdog as
potencial problem maker.

Thanks,
Sasa
