Yes. The script exists on both machines, but I think you have
nailed the problem. The working machine is running RedHat 6.2 plus
a 2.4.0+ kernel. The other (the Athlon) is running Mandrake 7.2 plus
a 2.4.0+ kernel. On the working machine, the installkernel script
is just a shell script. While, on the problem machine, the script
is a PERL script written by chmouel@mandrakesoft.com.

So, Chmouel, what gives? Can you help me debug this?

Thanks Russell,
