Done for i386, amd64 and powerpc. It works really good.

Partially done.
Next changes may be:
- Support to specify used config snippets. I don't really like to
duplicate files.
- Add smp alternatives patch[1] from akpm tree (this may be merged
anyway in the next time), and remove UP flavours in favour.
- Add x86_64 images for i386[2].
- Add s390-tape image (this needs support for different image types).
- Add xen images (this needs support for splitting modules/image).
