Bug#882766: Proposal: reinstate automated device selection, blacklisting d-i?

[Vincent McIntyre]

It would be good to make this change.

Is there some reason to not include a build stamp in the installer
initrd at, say, /build-stamp? This would be the same string as in
boot-screens/f1.txt (e.g. 20170615+deb9u2).

Regards
