I don't use rpm to install my kernel. I don't have to run an Install script written in perl. I run a make and use a couple of lines of shell script. Which is more reliable? A couple of lines of shell or a few hundred perl in an updating perl dist?
Those few lines of shell have no dependencies. Any method suse supports has more. You want to talk reliability and probabilities?
If you start to throw in shell scripts, then certainly, perl-Bootloader is a lot more reliable, because in contrast to your shellage, is tested by more than just one person.
