[Bug 1680156] Re: smartpqi driver needed in initram disk and installer

[David Duffey]

Hi Brad/Leann,

Some positive feedback that at least one system now works out-of-the-box
with the 17.04 installer.

I want to verify that this driver will land in the 16.04.3 installer
(initrd).

Is it true that any modules in an interim release installer (initrd)
always will automatically also be in the LTS point release installer
(vs. just in the kernel/kernel modules package).

Thanks,

David

  In 17.04 we included the smartPQI driver from Microsemi and this
  request is to include the driver into initram disk so that udeb can be
  created and included in the installer kernel as well.
