The following does not work:

	make DESTDIR=/my/target/root install

it calls 

exec /sbin/installkernel 2.4.17 bzImage /my/source/directory/linux-2.4.17/System.map

and proceeds to drop it on top of the local machine's 
kernel. installkernel should honor the selection of
a different root.

Have you looked at http://www.installkernel.com/ ?
ik -i does the install.

But it doesn't seem to have an argument by which you
can tell it to install in for example:

	/somedisk/workdir/cdbuildroot/boot/

instead of:

	/boot

I've got my own equivalent of lk btw... but I don't
use it to install on the *build* machine. I'm building
for CDROM's and into directories that will be tar'd
up and scp'd to other machines that do not have
compilers installed.
