- %pre: when neither /etc/sysconfig/installkernel nor
  /etc/sysconfig/installkernel.rpmsave exists, assume that
  system was configured to use make-initrd (closes: #24739),
  and issue a warning for mkinitrd users.

  ramdisks update on kernel install/removal
- set default INITRD_AUTOUPDATE value to 'none'
    
- Fixed /etc/sysconfig/installkernel migration issues (ALT #24709):
  + do not switch from mkinitrd to make-initrd if
    make-initrd was not enabled before the update;
  + inherit locally modified config left after make-initrd update

- lilo:
  - protect quotes in lilo.conf values (closes: #22705);

- bootloader_utils.pm: cleanup code of getroot()
    
- detectliloboot.sh: return real boot device when raid-extra-boot
  is set to mbr-only
    
- installkernel: improve error messages (closes: #21914)
    
- add convertdev.sh script to convert UUID=.. or LABEL=.. to device names
  use it in detectliloboot.sh and grub scripts (closes #18127)

- add --label option to installkernel, lilo and grub scripts
    
- installkernel:
  - change lilo restarting logic (closes #1014, #1015, #20695):
    old behaviour: restart lilo if first bootloader found in
      devices from /proc/partitions is lilo
    new one: restart lilo when lilo bootloader is found in
      device from boot= setting in lilo.conf
  - when detectliloboot.sh fails to find device, there are no
    need to run detectloader.sh (thx Dmitry V. Levin)
      (closes: #21106)
  - suppress unwanted output from cd -
- detectloader: replace by two shell scripts:
    detectliloboot.sh -- to get boot device from lilo.conf
    detectloader.sh -- to get bootloader type on the given device or file
- bootloader_utils.pm:
  - (getroot): recognize UUID and LABEL
      (thx Dmitry V. Levin) (closes: #2194, #18127)
