I think I installed this test kernel correctly on w34's OS (w34L.aus.stglabs.ibm.com). Let me know if I did something wrong and need to fix it.
Before installing this test kernel it had Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic) kernel: 4.15.0-22-generic

Ran the following to install test kernel:

Rebooted the system and the new kernel is:
