Try "make reinstall". I have been doing quite a bit of this since my kernel
panics before it ever gets all the way up. The last good kernel I have is about
a month old.
Actually, I moved /boot/kernel.old to another name in case I accidentally did an
install instead of a reinstall. I don't want to leave my machine unable to
boot.
