Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.92o
Severity: wishlist
There are different things that could be required to do after initramfs
image was created or updated, depending on system setup.
That may include copying initramfs to xen dom0 (or external bootserver),
updating non-standard bootloader (think all sorts of embedded systems),
or whatever.
Currently run_bootloader() routine tries to guess what it should do.
But it does not (and it can not) cover all posible cases.
It would be better to just add a hooks, configured in /etc/kernel-img.conf
or whereever else, that will run before and after image create, update or
remove. Hooks should get information about action, kernel version, and
initramfs filename.
Hooks may coexist with current run_bootloader(), or eventually replace it.
