Description
"make installkernel" doesn't copy *.img files to /boot/kernel.old, creating
the opportunity to have an unbootable system when reverting to kernel.old,
if not aware of it.

Ok, I've committed a slightly modified patch that will copy
/boot/kernel/initrd.img only instead of *.img.
Let me know if you think this is a problem.
