I compile my kernel adding a version suffixe. But the problem is the same
if I compile a new version without a different suffixe.
Perhaps a better way would be to save the "good" kernel in /boot with an
additionnal suffixe. Then generate a grub entry for it (update-grub
should does it). So you can directly boot with it. It supposes enough
available space in /boot.
