Description Dennis Schridde 2013-11-11 22:42:13 UTC 
Since the kexec-load@ systemd units were removed, the old kernel/postinst.d script does no longer work. I attached a new one.

Reproducible: Always

This isn't installed by kexec-tools. Where does it come from? What is that good for?

The idea is that it /should/ be installed by sys-apps/kexec-tools so that, when running installkernel(8) (from sys-apps/debianutils), usually through make install in a kernel sources directory, special things get done.

Earlier versions afaik installed it.

I never saw such a script, but I am fine with it.
