@Steve: I agree, i think this is the best solution, given how little time we have before release. How do distributions upgrades work? I just downloaded upgrade-manager- core and was greeted by a bunch of python scripts... which means I'm not gonna look through them. Does anyone know how this

Steve, If this is the case, one could make the claim, that Dapper servers will also have this problem as they should be supported until 2011 iirc? The stable kernel in Dapper is 2.6.15. On a side note this will affect most Xen and XenServer Server's (which almost all run 2.6.18) which imho is

Like i said, i'm just sure that I'm not the only planning to use debootstrap quite extensively, i would go as far as to say that this is my main install method. If this makes it in shortly after release, then thats fine as well. -- FFe: Sync tar 1.23-1 (main) from Debian squeeze (main)

Is there any chance that this will get fixed before the lucid release. I find this quite annoying as i have server machines running 2.6.18 (mostly rhel/centos) with which i want to use debootstrap to install lucid for chroot or for virtual machines. I really don't want to have to hack debootstrap
