Glad to see I'm not the only one burning the midnight oil...

This is something I encountered, too. I just looked back, and my message
never made it to the list. Dated 14 August, I pasted it below.

I had kernel-utils (the bootloader-utils' predecessor) installed fine, and
in fact had done the "urpmi.update -a"/"urpmi --auto-select" cycle before
doing the "urpmi kernel" that led to the error message.

Try `ln --help' for more information.


Looking at the symlinks, these still point to older things:
  kernel.h -> /boot/kernel.h-2.4.22-0.3mdk
  System.map -> System.map-2.4.22-0.3mdk

...and "/boot/kernel.h-2.4.22-0.4mdk" doesn't exist.
