Ah I see what you mean; this might be something we need to raise to the initramfs-tools / kernel teams; I see the kernel packaging guide has provisions which let me think that they want to support "dpkg -i linux-image-foo.deb" from a chroot or a mounted external storage / fs without triggering "grub-install" or so, but there doesn't seem to be room to do this across architectures. I'm pretty sure qemu-arm works though. > I have been using 'make deb-pkg' target recommended by kernel team, > which indeed does not create those hooks, not sure if make-kpkg > creates them.
