Found one error on the installer that doesn't affect the daily usage on paldo in anyway but it will give headaches to anyone who tries to remove an older kernel
The spec of the kernels on upkg say on postrm that it should delete on the file menu.lst from the title paldo.... etc $VERSION ... etc until the line savedefault
But the installer doesn't add on the menu.lst the line savedefault on the paldo entry...
This will make that on future remove of an older kernel the menu.lst comes from this:

This will amke on the next reboot the grub fails sayin it can't boot, of course because there is no entry from the system and you'll have to set on grub manually on the next startup...
... and it might be confused for some people
REQUEST: Update the installer to add savedefault to the end of the paldo kernel entry during its installation...
