Bug#445450: debian-installer: Unstable/sid kernel modules do not match kernel version in netboot
Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
The kernel modules listed in the sid Packages.gz for debian-installer
(dists/sid/main/debian-installer/binary-i386/Packages.gz , currently
showing 2.6.22-2-486-di) do not match the version of the kernel that's
used by the sid netboot image. (dists/sid/main/installer-i386/20070308 \
/images/netboot/debian-installer/i386/linux , currently showing \
2.6.18-4-486). This makes it virtually impossible to install directly to
unstable from a netboot. Installing to stable and then upgrading works,
but is not feasible if an internal mirror is used that only has certain
versions available (testing and sid, for example).
