Can't boot new kernel build

[Barney Cordoba]

I've built a new kernel and done a make install, and the system keeps booting an old kernel. It "says" its booting /boot/kernel/kernel, but its clearly not. No matter what I do, including deleting the old directory with the old kernel, it boots the old kernel. Clearly its cached somewhere, but I have no idea what's going on. What can cause this problem?
