I'm happy to learn the linux-image packages are now built with
kernel-package, which everyone should know, apparently, considering the
way you answered originally. Could you try to be helpful instead of
trying to get rid of bugs ?

I'm happy to learn that bugs that may help users are useless. By the
way, the issue I was talking about is more about some black magic
between lilo/grub, the kernel, and distro-specific scripts, than
something that need to be discussed on lkml. But you're maybe just
trying to get rid of bugs by any means
