fai-kernels (1.10) unstable; urgency=low

   * fai-kernels was removed as requested in #323183. Unfortunatly neither
     Thomas Lange (the former maintainer) nor me was informed of that action
     before it was done.
     This makes FAI unpleasent to use in unstable, and since FAI is in heavy
     development at the moment we would like to have as many testers as possible
     - so we decided to re-upload fai-kernels.
     As this is done now, I will stick to my original plan, which is using
     standard debian kernels with "nfsroot"-initrds for FAI. This will make
     fai-kernel unnecessary so it _then_ can be removed again.
   * added support for amd64 and ppc
   * updated README.non-i386 accordingly
   * updated to use linux-tree-2.6.14 instead of 2.6.8
   * apply the patch for #328707 to kernel-source-2.4.27 during build-time, so
     that it builds with the latest binutils. As 2.4.27-12 will hopefully soon
     be uploaded with the patch included, the patch will only be applied, if it
     applies cleanly without errors.
   * dont merge kernel config snipplets, rather use one config file per arch
     and kernel version (2.4/2.6)
