This does not cover the case where a system uses a method outside its own Debian packaging system, such as BootX or a BootP/TFTP server. Still, it's probably the best one can do with the control file. > Jens, would that be an acceptable solution ? To me this looks like the way to go. I already exchanged a few messages with Manoj about a similar issue, namely packaging the boot glue into /usr/lib/kernel-image-<release>, which is now done by the debian/rules file of kernel-patch-powerpc. We ended here: Jens: | May I suggest the following: We take care of the above two points by | adding a sub-architecture `generic' or `official' to powerpc and put | the necessary commands there. Manoj: | Sounds like a plan. Regards, Jens. -- J'qbpbe, le m'en fquz pe j'qbpbe! Le veux aimeb et mqubib panz je p�zqbpbe je djuz tqtaj!
