Downloads and installs new linux-ck kernel. By default will grab the
most recent config file from config-history unless the current config
is different (and exists), in which case it will be assumed more 
recent and saved in config history. If old config is used and from an
older kernel, make oldconfig will automatically run.

Options:
	-o: use the old package even if new is available
	-c: launch make nconfig
	-h: show this"
