Kernel module udebs in debian-installer ======================================= anna is not magical, and thus needs help to figure out what to install and what not to install. We want to minimize the amount of work the user has to do here, and one step in this direction is to automatically install all kernel module udebs. Actually, we only want to install the kernel modules for the running kernel, so anna needs a way to figure out 1. Whether a udeb is a kernel modules udeb 2. What kernel versino it belongs to To solve this, we introduce the XB-kernel-version control field. It will simply say XB-kernel-version: 2.4.19 for the 2.4.19 kernel module udebs, et.c. The memory footprint is small, on i386 I think installing all available kernel module udebs used up about 1M of ramdisk space.
