-\fBkernel\-install\fR COMMAND \fIKERNEL\-VERSION\fR [\fIKERNEL\-IMAGE\fR]
-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-.PP
-\fBkernel\-install\fR
-is used to install and remove kernel and initramfs images to and from
-/boot\&.
-.PP
-\fBkernel\-install\fR
-will execute the files located in the directory
-/usr/lib/kernel/install\&.d/
-and the local administration directory
-/etc/kernel/install\&.d/\&. All files are collectively sorted and executed in lexical order, regardless of the directory in which they live\&. However, files with identical filenames replace each other\&. Files in
-/etc/kernel/install\&.d/
-take precedence over files with the same name in
-/usr/lib/kernel/install\&.d/\&. This can be used to override a system\-supplied executables with a local file if needed; a symbolic link in
-/etc/kernel/install\&.d/
-with the same name as an executable in
-/usr/lib/kernel/install\&.d/, pointing to /dev/null, disables the executable entirely\&. Executables must have the extension
-"\&.install"; other extensions are ignored\&.
