Subject: installkernel fails on a 4.2-stable system

Hi. 

I've ended my upgrade blues radically by simply using new and larger than
'auto' filesystems and installing a 4.2-stable world plus 4.2-stable
GENERIC kernel. 

Now, I ofcourse wanna tune my kernel to my hardware, and have adapted
GENERIC by commenting out the devices and options I won't use.

Building succeeds using /usr/src:make installkernel KERNEL=<my kernel
file>, but installing fails with:

mv: rename /kernel to kernel.old: Operation not permitted

While I'm running this as root, ofcourse.

The 3.x system never nagged my about this. And even the 'hybrid'
4.x-system that I had for a while didn't. So why does it now? ;-)
