We already provide binary kernel images for an excessive number of flavors; it's unrealistic to think that we would be able to provide prepackaged images for all possible use cases, the important thing is to provide images that are usable on all target /hardware/, and if a user needs more specific options afterwards that's why we have linux-tree and linux-source packages. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
