Package: initramfs-tools
Severity: minor
Currently, initramfs-tools relies upon usr/initramfs_list in 2.6 kernels
to create the /dev and /root directories. The attached patch will make
sure that they are created along with the console and null device nodes.
This has two advantages:
1) If usr/initramfs_list changes, the initramfs will still work
2) The initramfs generated by update-initramfs can be compiled into the
kernel (thus replacing usr/initramfs_list). This is still not
straightforward to do (you have to first compile a kernel, then generate
the initramfs for it, copy it somewhere, ungzip it, configure the kernel
config to use that cpio archive as the initramfs and then compile it
again) but at least it is doable.

Closes: 340494 377643
Changes:
initramfs-tools (0.77) unstable; urgency=medium

scripts/local, update-initramfs: Cleanup the "-a" and "-o" bashism.
.
* scripts/nfs: Retry to mount NFS on eventual failure. (closes: 377643)
Based on a patch by Vagrant Cascadian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
.
* init: Make sure there is an /dev and /root. Usually passed by the kernel.
Also /dev/null or /dev/console might already be shipped.
Based on a patch by David Härdeman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. (closes: 340494)
