Re: Not usefull kernel images take all first Debian sarge CD :(
[ removing debian-devel which is not really necessary but added
debian-boot ]
Quoting Goswin von Brederlow:

They could, but for the moment they aren't and I have to live up with
that. :)
> For non i386 the list of kernels differs widely between archs.
Yes I address the problem only for i386. But I bet the problem is less
serious for other arches because they don't have so frequent uploads of
kernels, aren't they ?

debian-installer doesn't use 2.4.24 yet, does that mean that I broke
d-i by excluding the other kernels from the CDs ? Is that's true,
couldn't d-i be a bit more clueful and install the latest
kernel-image-2.4.x package that it finds ?
