 Did you do a "standard" install?
 
 kernels/install.sh was rewritten to allow a choice of kernel. e.g. GENERIC or SMP
 If you run the script by hand you need to rename the installed kernel. If you use
 one of the "potted" installs, sysinstall should do this for you.
 
 A manual install would be something like (i.e. not tested)
 
 cd /dist/kernels
 ./install.sh GENERIC
 mv /boot/GENERIC /boot/kernel
 
 If you want to install somewhere other than /, you should be able to set DESTDIR to
 avoid editing the script.
 
 I guess you could call this a "feature".
