verification for lucid.
I've verified that:
- Selecting the menu entry 'Install Ubuntu' installs a system with the lucid
kernel
- Selecting the menu entry 'Install Ubuntu (2.6.35)' installs a system with the
backported Kernels
- After a reboot, system boots and works correctly (X comes up, and

* Fix amd64 builds to actually include the lts-backport-maverick kernel on
maverick-* images (LP: #607657).

The current d-i lucid-proposed build introduces a regression: Now
alternate CD builds fail with
debian-installer has kernel ABI 2.6.35-23-generic, but no
corresponding udebs are on the CD!
That's the ABI of the maverick backported kernel, the real lucid kernel
is .32-28. The build log [1]
My debian-installer upload on amd64 was incorrect: the maverick-*
outputs aren't actually using the backported kernel.
I'm doing a debug build on antimony to try to track down why the
alternates are caring about 2.6.35-23-generic. That looks like a bug in
our debian-cd branch and not a problem
I've rolled out a debian-cd fix, and am now doing an amd64 test build to
find out what went wrong there.

I've confirmed that a base-installer change is unnecessary; base-
installer/kernel/altmeta=lts-backport-maverick works fine.
I've added the necessary kernel images to the Lucid DVD images, and I'm
going to change the debian-installer build system to generate several
new images, called
After this, it will only remain to arrange for the maverick kernel and
initrd to be available as boot options on the DVD.

Looks like this might actually be already in base-installer! I'll have
to test it to make sure, and of course we'll need to add the boot menu
UI and get the packages onto the CDs, but it looks as though base-
installer/kernel/altmeta=lts-backport-maverick will do the trick.

Let's look at sizing, then. The lucid server CD (last built on
2010-11-24) currently has 18345984 bytes free on amd64 and 27488256
bytes free on i386. Any one of the -lts-backport-maverick kernels
exceeds both of these by some margin: the smallest non-virtual kernel is

produce DVD point releases).

If I may add my 1penny, I think option 2 would be better (or 3 but that
seems a bit less pretty). The reason for it being tha some might need
support from the backport kernel at installation. And I think option 1
would only allow to install a different kernel, but not to boot it for

Yeah, I guess I was assuming that the installed kernel choices would
begin at the grub prompt.

How should this be presented? The choices I can imagine are:
1) Everyone gets asked a question in the Installing the base system step of
installation.
2) Some kind of option in the CD boot menu.
3) No UI, but we document a boot parameter to select the
