Because one is "just what you need to make a VM go", and the other is
"that, plus other fun modules you may or may not want."

Title:
  too many kernels offered on s390x, maybe

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Looking at the attached screenshot. Is it correct?

  It seems like there are redundant things reported, no? What is the
  expected list?

  I thought it would be something like:
  linux-generic
  linux-virtual
  linux-generic-extra
  linux-virtual-extra
  none

  (or like possibly lts things too)

  Also i'm not convinced about generic/virtual... it's the same kernel
  image no? so why do we provide two?
