But why would you want to install _multiple_ kernels in a preseeded
install while _not_ building an initrd for some of them? That's the only
case I can think of when a debconf setting would be relevant; if you
install just one kernel image or you want to create an initrd for all
installed kernels then debconf wouldn't buy you anything over a config
file...
