I'm still looking for this kernel-image package.  Can't find it in the ls-lR
files.

This sounds much more like it.

Now what about support for multiple kernels?  Is it possible to have a
rule to install the new kernel *near* (instead of over) other kernels, or
even near other compiles of same kernel?  You must know the urge to keep
at least one prooven kernel around in case the new one crashes.

As it is now, it looks like ytou have to manually shift /System.map and
/vmlinuz and add entries to lilo.conf, or am I missing something?

Cheers,
