Hi,

This happens with x86-based architectures, I believe.  I use an x86_64 profile,
but the bzImage ends up in (from the linux directory) 'arch/x86/boot'.  The
'arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage' is just a symlink to that.

It is probably because most of the base kernel source for any x86 based
processor is the same.  I wouldn't worry about it, unless your system
identifies the kernel as an i386 kernel.

Regards,
Chris
