Bug description:
I've just started looking at adding Ubuntu Raring to my 'netinstall'
script: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/netinstall and just run into
a fun issue with this commit:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/raring/flash-
kernel/raring/revision/447
Since there's no way to actually stop "flash-kernel-installer" from
running, I've been faking things, just to make it happy, which has
worked very well in the last two release's.
here's the log from what i see:
Mar 15 21:18:39 in-target: Setting up flash-kernel (3.0~rc.4ubuntu29) ...

Mar 15 21:18:59 main-menu[933]: WARNING **: Menu item
'flash-kernel-installer' failed.
When chrooting into /target/ to see what it is returning...
# linux-version list
#
Just a blank line..
#uname -r
3.7.10-x9
If i then manually patch
/var/lib/dpkg/info/flash-kernel-installer.postinst
and restart the "flash-kernel" option it finishes the install just
fine..
So, going forward I'd really like to keep supporting "no longer
supported by Ubuntu" boards such as the original Beagle, imx51/imx53,
etc... Along with boards Ubuntu doesn't currently support
BeagleBone/BeagleBoneBlack, or ANY mainline boards coming down the
pipe from CM's/etc..
