Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.21-4
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system


The following patch is needed to include the wrapper in the mkvmlinuz
support files. Without this, the kernel is not bootable on hardware
which support mkvmlinuz, thus causing a risk of breaking the whole
system.

I tried to apply the attached patch directly to the kernel svn, but
someone removed me from the kernel team, in another act of agression
against me, so i am forced to attach it here.

Sad that even the kernel team is joining the witch hunt against me,
