Imortant for yaird is to generate ramdisks that work, and fail if uncertain that a ramdisk will work. As I explained in Erkelenz (disregarding your memory of our conversation there) I suspect your proposed patch to not work always, but only with official Debian kernels. Specifically I suspect the patch to cause failures with kernels built with modular IDE drivers. Please note that I do *not* say that your patch does not work (for official Debian kernels). I say that I *suspect* it to not work in situations you seem to not even consider. And please don't take that as a complaint: I find it completely fair of you to care only for official Debian kernels as maintainer of them. But I care as maintainer of a package used not only for official Debian kernels. - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEDcs2n7DbMsAkQLgRAq4tAJ9Q1z9LmaQP29QeVhH9O46cmEbIQwCdHfTT kOhBvlXW6+R0SYlQEm3kyWw= =VMh7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
