Failed to create initrd > image. It looks odd to me with variables embedded in that string. Are you sure you shouldn't more properly have had that variable expanded at build time? Perhaps you passsed a longer string single-quoted rather than double-quoted, causing the variable within to not get expanded by the shell, but only within each make rule? I'll leave the bug open to see if others hit same same problem (so, all you out there reading this and nodding: please drop a note to this bugreport!). But really I don't like to accept dollar within config strings unless indeed it is sane to do so. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm
