Thanks!  Paul.
Yes I had copied the lifImage there. Now I have downloaded the kernel from 
the link you mentioned.

I am still unable to use vi as it says "linux:unknown terminal type"
Can you help me.

To add features can I add deb packages. I am not that familiar with debian.
Actually I want to build an apache + mod_ssl+mod_perl on A180c.
Regards
Kailas
