Why do you need a zImage file?

In YDL2 the genksyms program is missing from the modutils package. Someone
from YDL said they'd be releasing a fix for that, but it hasn't shown up
in yup yet.

You need genksyms or modules don't build correctly. You get all sorts of
unresolved symbol messages.

You can fix it by grabbing the SRPM for modutils, and compiling and
installing that.

(could be something else wrong too - but this was a problem for me, and
that fixed it for me.)
