# This module exposes a config.system.build.kexecBoot attribute,
# which returns a directory with kernel, initrd and a shell script
# running the necessary kexec commands.
# It's meant to be scp'ed to a machine with working ssh and kexec binary
# installed.
# This is useful for (cloud) providers where you can't boot a custom image, but
# get some Debian or Ubuntu installation.
