Management of the lpia configuration

I'm aware that due to the kernel packaging that lpia's config and the
i386 config files will always be physically separate but it would not
be difficult to modify the update rule to simply copy the generic
config to lpia when doing edit or update configs. However, as this is
for karmic, I'll work on determining the needed kernel config for d-i
this cycle, and post a git tree with the necessary changes.
