Hi all,

For some boot configurations (e.g. kexecboot) having the kernel binary in the 
image is required. In OE Classic, task-boot used to always include the kernel 
binary in the image (via RRECOMMENDS, so it could be uninstalled). We don't 
currently have this in OE-Core and I was wondering what the new preferred way 
to have this done would be.

Obviously we could go and add it to various images or even to task-core-boot 
again but I'm not sure that's ideal. Wanting the kernel in the image is really 
machine-specific (or to be precise, boot method specific); so I'm wondering if 
adding it to MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS for all machines likely to 
need it is the right thing to do?

Cheers,
Paul
