    Cedric,
    
      Thanks for checking.  I've made changes in 0.6.0_b2 that should allow 
    BLCR to deal with the relocatable kernel automatically, but I don't have 
    a system to test on.  If you could, please, try configuring as you 
    originally did with the vendor-supplied System.map - I'd like to know if 
    my changes work.  If that does not work, then 
    --with-system-map=/proc/kallsyms would be the 2nd choice.
