[Bug 1081721] Re: quantal to raring upgrade: do-release-upgrade fails to install the new kernel

[Parameswaran Sivatharman]

Well for quantal base images i had to add --addpkg linux-image-generic
during base image creation. This is based on the information given in
bug 1037607.

Just to make it clear the following is the command used to create the
base image

sudo ubuntu-vm-builder kvm quantal --kernel-flavour generic main
restricted --rootsize 5G --addpkg openssh-server --addpkg linux-image-
generic --arch i386

Bug description:
  Quantal to raring upgrade fails to install new kernel and uses the old
  quantal kernel after the release upgrade.

  Test_steps:
  1. Install quantal desktop
  2. Run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade
  3. Run sudo do-release-upgrade -d -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewNonInteractive
  4. Reboot after the upgrade and check for uname -r
  5. It could be noticed that the kernel version is still the old quantal version
