Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: initramfs-tools
Observed in initramfs-tools 0.98.1ubuntu6
Observed in flash-kernel 2.28ubuntu10
Platform: vexpress (armel)
flash-kernel should do nothing if /etc/flash-kernel.conf doesn't exist?
(this may either be a regression, or a platform-specific problem)
initramfs-tools should not even attempt to update the bootloader's
initrd image (and so probably shouldn't invoke flash-kernel at all)
unless /etc/kernel-img.conf says so (with do_initrd = Yes)
Of course, in a "normal" installation, both configuration files will
exist. But for test platforms, and in some other situations, we want to
avoid gratuitous flash rewrites.
