Comment 16 for bug 671027

ubiquity doesnt contain a clone of flash-kernel, flash-kernel-installer is what is used by the debian-installer scripts to set up a bootloader, this is what ubiquity uses, please read the code closer ;)

dont worry about the proper inclusion of the patch, i will add all bits needed for HW detection etc.

kernel poistinst and postrm bits were used in the past and are dropped upstream (and in ubuntu as well) with the vanishing of support for /etc/kernel-img.conf, flash-kernel is called by update-initramfs nowadays please have a look at its code too...

for enhancements of flash-kernel cmdline opts i'd suggest a wishlist bug against flash-kernel.
