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.
