ah, so perhaps drakboot did it? Yes the %post runs install kernel, 
actually, I used the original 2.4.21.5-1mdk kernel spec as close as 
possible. An entry 2421-1bh should be added to yaboot, nothing more.
Stupid thing is that either yaboot or installkernel limits labels to 8 
characters, so the smp kernel also gets 2421-1bh, and since installkernel 
checks for labels instead of images to see if something is aleady there, 
no entry for smp gets added if you have already up installed.

I am thinking about improving installkernel a bit anyway, but not sure how
I can fit all kernels (mosix, multimedia, 2.6, benh) +version
+compileoptions (smp,up,enterprise,etc) into an 8 char name.

Any ideas?
