I have two G5, one is 1.6G UP, another is 1.8G DP, ... ... I've made my own kernel and put xnu/BUILD/dst/* ... Copying the file named "mach_kernel" to the boot volumes' root directory is sufficient. Then you obviously have other bootable kernels or NetBoot available or might not boot the volume you think. Did you perhaps just rename the old kernel instead of copying & deleting it? Perhaps, modern versions of BootX remember something like the file's inode instead of the file path ... Where is the REAL kernel in the 1.8DP G5? How can I replace it? It's /mach_kernel, loaded into memory by BootX. I'd go to the Startup Volume system panel and check what's available. Then, click on the volume you want to boot to make the panel re-write OpenFirmware settings. If this doesn't help, you'd have to fiddle with the "nvram" utility directly, but I doubt that.
