Original LILO (1st entry) pointed to /boot/vmlinuz which is a symlink that
points to vmlinuz-2.2.14-1mdklinus.

Thanks Axalon, it worked. Seems like 'make mr' is IMproper. Reinstalled the
headers, and indeed modversions-secure.h was there. But /boot/kernel.h was a
zero-length file, possibly as a result of installing the headers. So I
rebooted and kernel.h was rebuilt. Installed VMware and so far it seems to be
OK, though haven't installed guestOS yet.
This implies I CAN recompile a secure kernel! How do I indicate when
compiling that I DO want the secure kernel? Be booted to it in the first
place?
