i believe that the INSTALL document and the FAQ mention both.  the kernel
is installed in the normal way via the installer.  are you sure that you
installed kern.tgz or kern_sbc.tgz from the binary/sets subdirectory?
those are the kernel distribution sets.  if you also installed a kern*.gz
file (like from the binary/kernel subdirectory), perhaps that's the
problem.

later.
