That is a switch from 2.6.17 to .18

Is 2.6.18 generic for powerpc, powerpc64, powerpc-miboot and prep ?

That lacks the switch to kernel 2.6.18 series ...
Neither 2.6.18 being generic for all powerpc sub architectures ...

[1] I did read:
''Everbody has the same knowledge as I have.
  And because I'm a very busy person, I only write
  2.6.18 kernel has raid456 instead of raid5 module.
  once and put in the subject line. And in the message body I refer to
  it. That makes my script much easier.
  I have no time to communicate with my peers and not willing to take
  time to communicate with my peers. After all I'm very busy and
  everbody has the same knowledge as I have.''

[2] I did raise my observation in this bugreport. I do hope that
technical follow-up and social follup-up find their seperate threads.
Proposal: tech to the BR, socio to the d-i mailinglist.

Correct, and we do _not_ want that switch yet.

We need that trickery for backwards compatibility.
