For different reasons I second that. VIMAGE definitively does not belong in MINMAL for comfort. I think a solution is something which was in the re@ inbox for a long time and someone said he'd do but it simply never happened. About a decade+ ago we did want to publish more than one kernel on a release to avoid all these problems. I assume with pkgbase it would be super-easy by now (ignoring build time and someone patching the installer). I'd love to have a VIMAGE kernel (GENERIC+VNET) and I'd love to have a NOIP4 (GENERIC without INET); these were the initial reasons for the above request. Would people thinkg this would be a better solution (at least for the X86 world) -- still ahving to deal with arm64 and others then. -- Bjoern A. Zeeb r15:7 --1098556516-760779814-1706967894=:2837--
