Package: elilo-installer Version: 1.2 Severity: grave base-installer adds 'do_bootloader = no' to /etc/kernel-img.conf. With this setting, kernel-image packages will no longer prompt the user to run ELILO in their post-install. This means users will see no indication that the kernel they just installed (which may contain a critical security fix, for example) is not configured as the default kernel for the next boot.
lilo-installer sets the precedent of removing this setting in its postinst. elilo-installer should probably do the same; although it seems to me that base-installer has chosen the wrong default of disabling bootloader execution. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
