Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.92j Severity: normal
When building my own version of the Linux kernel, the generated initrd does not contain the modules.dep file. At early stage of boot, I get alerts saying : modprobe: FATAL: could not load /lib/modules/2.6.26-doofi/modules.dep: no such file or directory I cannot get the alerts in my logs (even with bootlogd enabled). Since my kernel has built in support for many devices it still runs fine after the alerts but this bug might be the same as #499231 since the alerts appeared recently (and I have no other version of initramfs-tools to check). Manually re-creating the initrd image solves the problem but update-initramfs (and mkinitramfs) build initrd images missing the modules.dep file. I built the debian package with : # make-kpkg --revision 0.5 --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd kernel_image There is an Ubuntu report of this bug : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kernel-package/+bug/304776 I also found so information at http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2008/07/msg00258.html but my kernel config file does already specify a local version for the kernel (mine is CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-doofi"). -- Package-specific info: -- /proc/cmdline root=/dev/sda5 ro vga=792 quiet -- /proc/filesystems ext3 cramfs fuseblk -- lsmod Module Size Used by i915 25408 2 drm 65640 3 i915 ipv6 211604 12 cpufreq_stats 3664 0 fuse 42396 1 dm_crypt 11012 0 dm_mod 42800 1 dm_crypt serio_raw 4676 0 iwl3945 76184 0 firmware_class 6784 1 iwl3945 psmouse 31952 0 video 16144 0 led_class 3780 1 iwl3945 output 2816 1 video intel_agp 21884 1 agpgart 28788 3 drm,intel_agp dcdbas 6240 0 usbhid 22948 0 ohci1394 24560 0 ieee1394 74952 1 ohci1394 sg 26356 0 sr_mod 11944 0 cdrom 30360 1 sr_mod sd_mod 20248 5 -- /etc/kernel-img.conf # Kernel image management overrides # See kernel-img.conf(5) for details do_symlinks = yes relative_links = yes do_bootloader = no do_bootfloppy = no do_initrd = yes link_in_boot = no postinst_hook = update-grub postrm_hook = update-grub -- /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf MODULES=most BUSYBOX=y KEYMAP=n BOOT=local DEVICE=eth0 NFSROOT=auto -- /etc/crypttab # <target name> <source device> <key file> <options> -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-doofi (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages initramfs-tools depends on: ii cpio 2.9-13 GNU cpio -- a program to manage ar ii findutils 4.4.0-2 utilities for finding files--find, ii klibc-utils 1.5.12-2 small utilities built with klibc f ii module-init-tools 3.4-1 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii udev 0.125-7 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo Versions of packages initramfs-tools recommends: ii busybox 1:1.10.2-2 Tiny utilities for small and embed initramfs-tools suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
