Odd thing. I never noticed they were symlinks. A simple `sudo cp ...`

I do use -av out of habit. That habit started when I was copying
installs from one drive to another. I don't think I have any aliases
anymore. It would be good if I just copied the right thing. :/
Or you could use make install and remove the possibility for screw-ups.
After all, you trust make to build and kernel, then build and copy the
entire module tree. Surely you can manage to trust it with one more
file :-O
I did use it once but I didn't like the way it did it. That could have
changed since then tho. I'm also bad to keep several versions of older
kernels around too. I have had over a dozen on /boot before. That's why
my /boot is a 200 Mbs or so. Sort of like this:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 186663 26457 150569 15% /boot
If we carry this to far, I'll being using Linux from Scratch. ;-)
