Comment 3 Olaf Hering 2005-09-04 19:55:35 UTC

uld_modules can be empty
multiple kernels are not handled, like it is the case after the mkinitrd abort.

Comment 4 Hannes Reinecke 2005-09-05 08:47:53 UTC

Created attachment 48748 [details]
mkinitrd

Fixed /sbin/mkinitrd. Please test with this.

Comment 5 Olaf Hering 2005-09-05 11:19:48 UTC

the current one from abuild appears to work, that likely doesnt fix the mkdir bug.

Comment 6 Olaf Hering 2005-09-05 11:36:16 UTC

the attached one appears to work.

Comment 7 Hannes Reinecke 2005-09-05 14:38:13 UTC

Updated mkinitrd submitted to STABLE.
