Come to think of it.. we could bastardize Ubuntu's PPA packages for mainline kernels, translate the deb packages into tar files and some sort of grub-update or whatever scrip to run in the end? That still seems like a lot of work. The current option allows us to use either distro kernels or whatever you have installed.. not sure how else to improve this. Didn't we have some sort of distro agnostic package crap? Maybe?
Or -- Andy -- any chance we can get some of the deb contents unpacked into a distro-agostic tarball of some sort that we can use ? I ask given that you guys already host the sources and all that. Luis
