Not sure if the Chrome/YouTube still persisted after that, because that was
intermittent--I never had a 100% reliable Chrome test case, which is why I was
using the reliable Firefox case.

Thanks for putting the pieces together for me, Ryan. I seem to have success
now. (My package management is probably pretty weird as a result, but I'm going
to ignore that.)
For the other n00bs, here was the final piece:
mkdir -p /tmp/kernel && cd /tmp/kernel
wget
