Title:
  Initrd/vmlinux symbloic links not in /boot directory on PowerPC

Status in “casper” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Version: Casper 1.309
  Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop ISO PowerPC

  The symbolic links for initrd.img, initrd.img.old, vmlinux and
  vmlinux.old are placed in the root directory of the squashfs
  filesystem.  These are then copied by ubiquity to the root partition
  of the installed system.  The initrd.img.old file also doesn't have
  the correct permissions.

  On previous CDs (for example 10.04) these files were placed in the
  /boot directory of the squashfs filesystem.

  When updating the installed system kernel the symbolic links on the
  root partition are the ones that are updated, rather than in /boot
  where yaboot looks.  I don't know if something else also has to be
  changed to correct this.
