FAI 3.4.x provides the following examples/simple/files/etc/kernel-img.conf/DEFAULT file: do_symlinks = Yes do_initrd = Yes silent_modules=yes clobber_modules=yes do_boot_enable=no On some of my systems I find: # Kernel Image management overrides # See kernel-img.conf(5) for details do_symlinks = Yes and: # Kernel Image management overrides # See kernel-img.conf(5) for details do_symlinks = Yes do_initrd = Yes The "Policy for Linux kernel, initramfs, boot loader update process" (see http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2010/06/msg00538.html ff) actually suggests to not set do_bootloader, postinst_hook or postrm_hook in /etc/kernel-img.conf any longer, also documented at http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ch-update-hooks.html#s-init-config So unless there are objections I tend to keep the version as-it-is in FAI 3.4 and close this bugreport. regards, -mika-
