Still the same with feisty.

** Also affects: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20 (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: Unconfirmed

** Summary changed:

- [edgy] installing nvidia-glx pulls linux-restricted-modules-386
+ installing nvidia-glx pulls linux-restricted-modules-386

** Description changed:

  I'm installing machines automatically, and the package list is
  preseeded. However, I noticed that the machines don't boot after the
  first phase, since the -386 kernel gets installed and grub sees it as
  the default kernel (and it fails mounting the root). The reason is that
  while -generic kernel gets also installed, nvidia-glx doesn't pull
  -generic version of restricted-modules, but instead the -386 which in
  turn pulls linux-image-...-386.
- 
- I probably can work around this by explicitly adding linux-resctricted-
- modules-generic to the list of packages, but somehow nvidia-glx managed
- to install correct linux-restricted-modules-foo on dapper.
