Re: kernel-package forces target to `Image'

[Tor Slettnes <tor@slett.net>]

Sure..
I am the cause of that /Image thing, and it had to do with an earlier
version of the NeTTrom not being able to read /vmlinux.  I have not
tried this in later versions, and anyway think that your idea about a
switch is cleaner.

So, if you have that influence, please. :-)
