    The kernel name does not depend on the name of the directory, but on the
    name you tell the kernel it has in its configuration file
    (var CONFIG_LOCALVERSION, accesible in the menu).

    And watch, your "/lib/modules/2.6.11.4-21.7-default" or "...-bigsmp." is
    now contaminated. You should get it again from the rpm.
