debian netinst image using stable release with backports kernel

[Thomas Lange]

Hi,

I wonder why Debian does not create the netinst ISO for bookworm
including the backports kernel? IMO this would be a great benefit for
our end users that want to use Debian on recent hardware.
Running Debian stable but with a backports kernel is similar to Ubuntu
HWE.

I hope that the cdimage building scripts support multiple lines
in sources.list and that it's easy to specify a different kernel
package name.

What's your opinion about that? Did you already had a discussion about
that in the past?

Because it's more complicated than that, and time. PoC a little while
