Bug Description

$ sudo linaro-media-create --mmc /dev/sdb --dev panda --hwpack hwpack_linaro_lt-panda-x11-base_20120221-1_armel_supported.tar.gz --binary linaro-o-ubuntu-desktop-tar-20120223-1.tar.gz

...
First installation: checking all kernels...
dpkg: error: version '*-*' has bad syntax: version number does not start with digit
It is likely that 2.6.32 belongs to a chroot's host
...

Unaware user might take this as an error. It's also confusing that there is comment hinting about kernel version 2.6.32 while both host and target image have 3.x kernel version.
