Apt/Rawhide update doesn't seem to update kernel. . .

Per my experience with debian, and performing the upgrade from RH 9 
betas to RH 9 with apt, apt never grabs a kernel as part of a 
dist-upgrade. In debian, stable/testing/unstable don't actually have a 
specific kernel version assigned to them, they each have a handful of 
major/minor kernels available, which you must install explicitly.
