That was a good point, that made me re-download the latest netboot tar ball
from upstream and extracted the kernel from that, made comparison against
the new and existing kernels. although both were dated same
timestamps/sizes, but they actually differ!
Went ahead and ran an actual install, ta-da, the kernel matched and it went
through~!
That was awesome! Thanks for the hint and tips, very much appreciated!!!

Cheers.
