| cjwatson | rstricklin: I've asked somebody who might be able to help with that | 17:30 |
|---|---|---|
| rstricklin | cool, thanks cjwatson | 17:35 |
| rstricklin | this is in conjunction with some supermicro bios updates in softlayer; as it turns out the update ALSO causes ESXi to crash, so there's something bigger going on | 17:36 |
| rstricklin | my need to get an answer is less urgent now, but it would still be good information to know | 17:36 |
| cjwatson | those installer images are normally updated routinely to track newer kernels; I suspect that the hwe kernels may have fallen out of that process somehow | 17:47 |
| cjwatson | it's a while since I was responsible for this but I would guess it's unintentional | 17:47 |
| cjwatson | this is all done by builds of the debian-installer source package | 17:47 |
| rstricklin | reading between the lines, then... we might expect (someday, on no particular schedule) the installer to include a newer 4.15 kernel than 4.15.0-29? | 18:08 |
| rstricklin | I guess I should say, the xenial installer particularly | 18:09 |
| cjwatson | It seems reasonably likely, unless there's some extremely weird blocker I don't know about | 18:31 |
| rstricklin | great, thanks | 19:02 |
