Binary package “kboot-utils” in ubuntu bionic
helper tools to generate a kboot.conf file
kboot-utils provides helper tools to automatically generate a kboot.conf file
from entries in /boot.

kboot.conf is used for instance by the petitboot bootloader, which is used on
the Sony PlayStation 3 in OtherOS mode; petitboot reads the file from the root
filesystem in order to list kernels to boot.
