Comment 1 for bug 1702711

hmm, well I put this back in, but it seems like the bootloader is broken for wheezy

I really don't have the inclination to look into this ... it may have been broken for some time because I don't think we were ever testing "stable" ... only testing (which has become stretch)

There's a few bugs out there on this, but they talk about dm-crypt and lvm and things we're not exactly touching.

I'm not sure what to do here. If we don't have a working way to build and image with a bootloader, maybe we should just deprecate it to make it clear...
