>Description:
	I built a release with only kern-laptop.tgz, because I'm installing
	on a laptop.  The install program said that the selected device
	doesn't contain the "required" files kern.tgz, base.tgz, and etc.tgz.
	When I said "ignore, continue anyway", of course it worked.

	The installer should check for the kernel tarball it will use.

>How-To-Repeat:
	See above.
