populating rootfs with new kernel image

Hello all,

I have just changed the kernel image version from 2.6.24 to 2.6.22
(downgrade) in my own distro.
In order to do this change I have setted up the variable:
PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-epia = "2.6.22"

So if I run:
$ bitbake linux-epia -c rebuild

OE builds the new kernel version (2.6.22) by default.

Nevertheless, when I'm going to populate again my rootfs with the command:

$ bitbake my-image -c builldall -f
or
$ bitbake my-image -c rebuild -f

Bitbake populates the rootfs image with the kernel version 2.6.24, it
looks like bitbake ignores the preferred_version.

I sure I'm doing something wrong, can anybody help me?

Thanks.
