Oops.. perhaps I was unclear; I think Erich and I are in violent agreement.

For a given SystemImager version, I would like the default, non-UYOK 
kernel to be the same on all Linux distributions. I'd like to create 
loadable modules for, say, SystemImager 3.7.4-1, without worrying about 
which distribution the imageserver is running.
