i have been reading the makefiles and boot files to try to figure this one
out.  i ran 'make installkernel KERNEL=MERCURY''and everything works fine.
But i have 2 kernels in /
One is kernel, one is MERCURY.  The modification date on 'kernel' is close
to the one for MERCURY.  WHich one does my system boot with, and which can
be deleted?

In /boot, the config files seem to show 'kernel' being booted.  If so, why
does MERCURY exist?
