Thus I'm wondering if we should make /sbin/new-kernel-pkg add the links
/boot/vmlinuz and /boot/initrd on kernel-install and let them point to
the lastet kernel/initrd (the one from the kernel that is made default
in our grub on install). Then OpenSuse and Ubuntu could use those files
instead of the full vmlinuz/initrd path in their grub configuration and
users would be able to start Fedora even after a few kernel updates from
Fedora got installed.
I like that idea. I also really like the idea of adding in some kind of
postfix differentiator configured in /etc/sysconfig/kernel so that one
can still have a shared /boot between several Fedora/RHEL/whatever.
I might then configure:
/boot/vmlinuz-fedora10
/boot/vmlinuz-rawhide
/boot/vmlinuz-rhelX
I'm try to avoid sharing boot, but yes, I can imagine why some people do
that.
Anyway, FYI: wanted to file a bug to hopefully get those links sooner or
later, but then I found there is on already:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476967
Added a note there.
