Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.93.4 Severity: minor File: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions
On one of my systems, here are the very first things one sees upon boot. I copied them down on paper, as fast as I could, as of course no thought has been given to logging messages at this point here in Debian. Loading, please wait... readlink: no such file or directory INIT version 2.86... What is bothering me is the readlink: no such file or directory It says something is wrong. So I tried to find where these messages are coming from, $ grep Loading.*wait /usr/share/initramfs-tools/* /usr/share/initramfs-tools/init:echo "Loading, please wait..." $ grep -l readlink /usr/share/initramfs-tools/* /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions $ strings /sbin/init|grep INIT.*2\\.86 INIT_VERSION=sysvinit-2.86 Actually, some of these messages are more likely coming from /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-trunk-686 Anyway, perhaps /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions "just assumes" readlink is available, despite the settings below. Or maybe I have little idea of what I am talking about. -- Package-specific info: -- /proc/cmdline BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-trunk-686 root=/dev/hda5 ro quiet panic=15 -- /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 -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers experimental APT policy: (990, 'experimental'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=zh_TW.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages initramfs-tools depends on: ii cpio 2.10-1 GNU cpio -- a program to manage ar ii findutils 4.4.2-1 utilities for finding files--find, ii klibc-utils 1.5.15-1 small utilities built with klibc f ii module-init-tools 3.11-1 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii udev 150-2 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo Versions of packages initramfs-tools recommends: pn busybox | busybox-initramfs <none> (no description available) initramfs-tools suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
