Description:   Opened: 2007-09-26 01:20 0000 
For the longest time, pegasos support apparently needed a special set of hooks
in genkernel to build the kernel for it in a certain way.  This is done by
forcing the kernel image name to zInitrd.image, and setting the variable
GENERATE_Z_IMAGE to a positive value.  After looking over the code, these
double conditional checks seem uneccessary, and so are replaced by a single
variable, ENABLE_PEGASOS_HACKS.  The hacks are activated by passing to
genkernel the --genzimage command line parameter.

This cleans up the conditional code in preparation for the --ktarget patch,
filed under Bug #179294.
