Currently SystemImager doesn't support kernel setup, so what SystemInstaller
does is creates
/etc/systemconfig/systemconfig.conf
in the image. It contains lines like:
CONFIGRD =3D 1
CONFIGBOOT =3D 1
[BOOT]
BOOTDEV =3D /dev/hda
ROOTDEV =3D /dev/hda5
DEFAULTBOOT =3D linux
[KERNEL0]
PATH =3D /boot/vmlinuz
LABEL =3D linux
[KERNEL1]
PATH =3D /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18
LABEL =3D linux-2.4.18
SC will parse this file in addition to the STDIN captured from
SystemImager's autoinstall script. It will then:=20
* generate ramdisks for the 2 kernels (by determining their version number,=
=20
and running native tools)
* generate the bootloade config containing the 2 kernels, and making the
defaultboot be the default kernel.
This information could be added to the autoinstall script as well if someone
wanted to do it there instead. However SystemInstaller attempts not to do
that if possible.

There is no silver bullet. Plus, werewolves make better neighbors than
zombies, and they tend to keep the vampire population down.
