The current logic in d-i-n-i is to fetch …/netboot/netboot.tar.gz and …/netboot/gtk/netboot.tar.gz for all architectures. On those where it fails, it will download …/MANIFEST and try downloading everything which is under …/netboot/ and use that in the package. The problem with kfreebsd's numbered directories is that it forces d-i- n-i to add this kernel version number in its logic, for no good reason. That's why I'd prefer to have kfreebsd's either have a /netboot/ symlink pointing to the preferred numbered /netboot-$n/ directory or (given it currently only has one version, which is likely to be jessie's state), rename that directory to be un-numbered. As far as I understood, the latter is a matter of renaming some files in build/config/kfreebsd-*/ . Opinions?
