Bug Description

using the daily image of quantal quetzal (august 16th) after initial install and restart there is a kernel panic. you have to hand edit preEnv.txt to get it to boot. my preEnv.txt reads as follows:

bootargs=ro root=UUID=xxx

there is a boot.scr present on the partition but preEnv.txt still needs edited.

this was fixed a while ago, flash-kernel-installer should do the right things now, please re-open if preEnv.txt is still missing or having options that make the boot fail somewhere
