  • debian netinst image using stable release with backports kernel

    From Thomas Lange@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jul 24 08:20:01 2024
    Hi,

    I wonder why Debian does not create the netinst ISO for bookworm
    including the backports kernel? IMO this would be a great benefit for
    our end users that want to use Debian on recent hardware.
    Running Debian stable but with a backports kernel is similar to Ubuntu
    HWE.

    I hope that the cdimage building scripts support multiple lines
    in sources.list and that it's easy to specify a different kernel
    package name.

    What's your opinion about that? Did you already had a discussion about
    that in the past?

    Because it's more complicated than that, and time. PoC a little while
    back… https://lists.debian.org/debian-cd/2014/01/msg00026.html
