And in case anybody's interested, I've now got a working 2.6.32 underneath
Ubuntu 9.04.  And if anyone's interested, some /boot filesizes in kilobytes:


   99 config-2.6.28-18-generic
  114 config-2.6.32-02063208-generic
   67 config-2.6.32.8

7592 initrd.img-2.6.28-18-generic
8370 initrd.img-2.6.32-02063208-generic
3558 initrd-2.6.32.8.img

3508 vmlinuz-2.6.28-18-generic
4018 vmlinuz-2.6.32-02063208-generic
3273 vmlinuz-2.6.32.8

Those three are the current Ubuntu 9.04 standard kernel, the Ubuntu 2.6.32.8
as provided in a .deb, and the one I just built.
