Better yet, there is the backport of the 4.18.6 kernel which is
available precompiled. Instructions to use it are available on
https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/

I am running stretch (debian 9.6)
I attempted to follow the instructions linked above.
1. Add
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster-backports main
to /etc/apt/sources.list
2. apt-get udpate
3. Got this message:

I have an Esata card which debian 9.6 (kernel 4.9.0-8) doesn't seem to see. I want to upgrade to the newest stable kernel, 4.14, to see if that works.
What would be bhest method for doing this. Build from source using debian's .config? Or, perhaps, would I be best installing a rolling release like arch and see if that works.
