Hi folks,

I don't want to be annoying, but I really think this should be sorted out in
time for lenny.  Not doing so will mean that boot will be less robust; for
example if one does:

  mkdir /tmp/boot
  mv /boot/* /tmp/boot/
  cp -a /tmp/boot/* /boot/

on a system where core.img was embedded, nothing will happen.  OTOH if you do
the same on a system where core.img was referenced via blocklists, boot will
start crashing as soon as the (now free) blocks that held the old core.img
are overwritten.
