Would it be possible to add a reference to this in the linux-image
packages? dpkg -s linux-image-* doesn't have any reference to this.
Also, there is no README in this package to would point you there.

This Kernel Handbook (http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/) is
very helpful. I never knew about it until today because it wasn't
referenced anywhere in the kernel-image package (that I could find).

In other regards, thanks for maintaining this helpful information,
Jeff
