New description:

 I did a patch for /sbin/update-grub so when one installs a new kernel
 doesn't
 have to manually edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add init=/sbin/initng to
 each kernel.
 My patch is Debian-specific, so if anyone can please check what other
 systems
 use to update menu.lst I'll be glad to make the patch "universal".

 here's the patch:
