Bug Description

If a package is installed in the chroot for the test image, and it calls flash-kernel, the real boot partition will be updated with a new uImage and uInitrd. This can cause big problems if there is a problem with that kernel. There's no good way to write protect that partition currently, so flash-kernel should be diverted.
