OK: in broth, my horrible hacky hook forces the name to "vmlinuz" and "initrd.img", for the reason that they had extra appendages on their names (kernel version? I forget).

There are various places where "vmlinuz" is used.

But there are various places where "vmlinuz1" is used:
/bouilloncube/sh/grub2/grub-puredyne-1010.cfg.in
/broth/stock/binary_local-includes/extra/*/*

Can someone suggest what the authoritative approach is? We need to converge on the same filename used in all the scripts but I don't know if there are other factors affecting the naming.

I renamed the grub templates to vmlinuz and initrd and commited.

no need to bother too much with this as we release Puredyne with only one kernel, so let's stick to normal naming scheme.
