did my proposed solution not work for you?

i would strongly recommend against doing it that way; that's not something
meant to be edited and it will be overwritten every time the simple-cdd package
is upgraded...

it's directly editing the code that sets the defaults for when you're not 
using the --kernel-packages commandline option or setting the kernel_packages 
variable.

please use the configuration methods available rather that hacking up the 
program directly.


live well,
