Howto: upgrade OSx86 kernel

Here's a small howto about upgrading the OSx86 kernel.

First, download a kernel and unzip / unrar the archive
Place the kernel (named 'mach_kernel' ) file on your desktop
Open terminal and type:
    sudo cp /mach_kernel /mach_kernel_old
    (this will backup your current kernel)
    (type your password)
    sudo cp -f ~/Desktop/mach_kernel /
    sudo chown root:wheel /mach_kernel*
    sudo chmod 644 /mach_kernel*
