This used to fend off the automatic updating of the bootloader # cat /etc/kernel-img.conf do_symlinks = no do_bootloader = no silent_modules = yes warn_initrd = no I don't think that is still working since [1] says: Most of those tasks are offloaded to hook scripts in the /etc/kernel/*.d/ directories. For instance, the integration with grub relies on /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-update-grub and /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub to call update-grub when kernels are installed or removed. so have a look into your /etc/kernel/ directories to find a way to disable automatic updating of the bootloader.
