Re: Making simple-cdd pull another kernel from repository

[Lucas Brasilino <lucas.brasilino@gmail.com>]

Hi

As I could see, the
$simple_cdd_dir/tmp/debian-cd/tools/generate_di+k_list generates
a list that contains the linux-image-2.6-486 package, which makes
debian-cd to pull it from repository.

I gonna try to make a new linux-image-2.6-486 package which will
depend on my custom kernel package... Let's see if it will work :-)
