Bug#254996: base-installer: Smarter selection of the kernel to install on target
Package: base-installer
Version: 0.082
Severity: wishlist
It seems that the postinst code currently chooses the right
arch for a kernel only if the kernel packages are named like:
kernel-image-(2.4|2.6)-(386|586tsc|686|k6|..)
For custom made CDs with a possible local pool, holding custom
kernels, it would be nice that the script recognises also names
like:
kernel-image-(2.4|2.6)-myflavour-(386|586tsc|686|k6|..)
-- System Information:
