That's where ? In your booted target ? What BSP are you using, how did
you install the image ?

Answering that question, will likely get you your answer. If you previously
generated a rootfs and installed it. You'd need to do the same thing
and do it with a clean install with the new kernel to remove all
remnants of the old package.

(That's assuming you aren't using package management on the target,
or package feeds. I don't, so manually look after this sort of thing).

Cheers,

Bruce
