Mostly just because if I copy the kernel file over myself
instead of using make install I have a copy of the old
kernel in case I screwed something up (and know where it
is).  I am under the impression that copying the kernel to
the root is what make install does.  Is there a problem
with this logic?

Other than that, the faq also uses:
        # make clean && make depend && make

I guess the fact that my procedure doesn't use make clean
is mostly due to a simple error... ooops, i must have been
tired when I was writing the damn thing.  Thanks for
pointing that out.  I will be adding that.
