Custom kernel drivers

Hi Folks,

I have a related question.
After we build the kernel snap, how can we replace the default kernel snap
if we use the image from ubuntu?
http://releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/16/

I tried that but snap command reported an error like "cannot replace signed
** snap with an unasserted one".
Thanks.

Peng
