Package: flash-kernel (2.25)

utility to make certain embedded devices bootable

flash-kernel is a script which will put the kernel and initramfs in the boot location of embedded devices that don't load the kernel and initramfs directly from /boot. flash-kernel supports devices that boot from flash memory (hence the name) as well as some devices that require a special boot image on the disk.
