Hi,

you may have read that are able to solve some build problems now
by using a VM kernel comming the build repositories directly.

I like to continue on this route to solve even more problems, so
my proposal is for:

13.1 armv6l and 13.1 aarch64:
- I like to build a kernel-obs-build as part of openSUSE:13.1:Ports
  so all Contrib projects and kiwi builds inside of 13.1:Ports are
  using the kernel and avoid the missing module problems esp. for kiwi
  images.
  => It would be just a repackage kernel-default x86_64 from 13.1

  Do I have a GO to configure that?

factory arvm6l and aarch64:
- no change for now, wait for a generic solution in factory for all
  architectures.

armv7l 13.1 and factory:
- we do a native build here inside of KVM. Unfortunatly we need 
  at least one special guest kernel for the workers. This code
  is also unlikely to get merged with official SUSE kernels.
   Currently this is only working, because the armv7 worker have
  patched build script. But that means it breaks on every other
  OBS instance and will break with future OBS developments. 
   So I like to switch to the new build script mechanism by building
  a armv7l guest kernel inside of openSUSE:13.1:Ports and openSUSE:Factory:ARM
  for armv7l only and use that one.

  I heard that we may need different kernels even for the guest for 
  different hardware boards. We do not have a mechanism for that yet.
  But is that really needed?
