Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.85i
Followup-For: Bug #535008
Hi,
you may use the following script as a temporary fix.
Depending on your initrd, you have to put the script (which I call
"pxedev") into one of the following places (putting it in both does not
seem to hurt):
* /etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/nfs-top/pxedev
* /etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/live-premount/pxedev
and then re-generate the initrd.
(Excuse the anachronistic shell-scripting style; this has to work with
minimal Bourne shell clones.)
Regards,
Christoph
