Title:
  vmlinuz permissions

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I use NFS root-boot for our department systems.  Every time I upgrade,
  if it includes a linux-image-generic and I don't notice, I get lots of
  calls that the users cannot boot.  The vmlinuz image is chmod 600, but
  for NFS root-boot needs to be 644.  This is a very annoying (but not
  urgent) bug.

  Please fix so that new kernels are installed chmod 644 (as all other
  distros do).

  Thanx,

  David A. Bandel
