Package: systemd-boot
Version: 257.7-1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
This package installs an initramfs hook in
/etc/initramfs/post-update.d/systemd-boot
which refers to "/boot/vmlinuz-*", however on riscv64 the kernel images
are uncompressed and named "/boot/vmlinux-*".
Predicatably, this causes errors during update-initramfs operations.
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.12.35+deb13-riscv64
Updating kernel version 6.12.35+deb13-riscv64 in systemd-boot...
Failed to open kernel image file '/boot/vmlinuz-6.12.35+deb13-riscv64': No such
file or directory
run-parts: /etc/initramfs/post-update.d//systemd-boot exited with return code 1
See below for an example fix, which seems to work for me.
