 # Simple script to generate a deb package for a Linux kernel. All the
 # complexity of what to do with a kernel after it is installed or removed
-# is left to other scripts and packages: they can install scripts in the
-# /etc/kernel/{pre,post}{inst,rm}.d/ directories (or an alternative location
-# specified in KDEB_HOOKDIR) that will be called on package install and
-# removal.
+# is left to other scripts and packages. Scripts can be placed into the

+# /usr/share/kernel. A different list of search directories can be given
+# via KDEB_HOOKDIR. Scripts in directories earlier in the list will
+# override scripts of the same name in later directories.  The script will
+# be called on package installation and removal.
