Regarding MOL you may notice mismatches between what it (MOL) is
expecting the kernel to be and what version of the kernel you are
actually using.  This mismatch has happened more than once in the past.
However, there may be a "work around" which is posted on the YDL FAQ
website which may be useful to you.  Here is the link to get there:
