Package: kernel-package
Severity: wishlist

  Hi.  It seems make-kpkg fails at building a kernel image with Xen as
 an x86 subarch, because it expects a bzImage, whereas Xen can only
 start plain vmlinuz images (the Xen hypervisor itself is the only thing
 that needs an x86 boot sector).

  It would be really nice if make-kpkg supported this, as it appears
 this is the way the Xen port of Linux will be in the future.  (The
 kernel developers refused to merge Xen as a separate architecture.)

  The subarch developement tree may be found in the Mercurial repository
 at <http://xenbits.xensource.com/linux-2.6-xen.hg>, by the way.

Kind regards
