Say I need a Debian with Kernel 3.2.63-2+deb7u1 i686.How do I find the corresponding Debian Version? I assume it would be Debian 7 because this document states that Debian 7 has Kernel version 3.2. Yet, there are several iso images I can download, e.g. debian-7.8.0-i386-netinst.iso, debian-7.9.0-i386-netinst.iso, etc. How do I know which of these isos will result in a system with the exact kernel version 3.2 .63-2+deb7u1 I need?Or, maybe, is this a matter of installing the .deb corresponding to the specific version, i.e. up- or downgrading the kernel as needed?
I need a specific kernel version. How do I get the corresponding Debian iso?

The Wheezy changelog lists all the package updates in each point release. This shows that Debian 7.7 was released with 3.2.63-2, while Debian 7.8 was released with version 3.2.65-1. So you won't find an installer image with the exact version you're looking for.But you can find the relevant kernel packages in the snapshots; this will allow you to install the version you're after.
