Yup. You got me. No security updates applied. (Definitely not a -pnum argument of patch issue.) patch gave me `Hunk #1 FAILED at 5.' Still don't know why (looking at those files). Interested in a .rej file and/or --debug=2 output from patch? ;-} > i don't see why that should matter really, i know people to just drop > the kernel in / and things work properly.

Sorry, this didn't do the trick (still getting complaints from depmode/insmode/modprobe). Must be s'th else from an existing (module-enabled) /boot directory that shows me warnings if booted from /otherdir using a non-modularized kernel (most probably shame on me for not reading all available docs --- or not removing /boot at all). scr
