    Isn't the kernel in /sys?
    It is the compressed kernel image (vmlinuz) that is stored in /boot for use by the bootloader, which then, it is uncompressed and the real kernel booted?
    At least that is what I learned from Arch Linux.

    I do not have this setup any longer since I deployed and forgot about it, but later I will probably try it again and run into the same problem. I'll update this when I get to try it again.
