Package: klibc-utils
Version: 1.5.12-2
Severity: important
In /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local, get_fstype() uses
what is probably /usr/lib/klibc/bin/fstype to determine the fs type.
This returns 'ext3' for an ext4 fs, unlike /lib/udev/vol_id, which
returns 'ext4'.
This breaks the initrd, which fails to mount the rootfs and gives
ENODEV. Can't mount root, system useless unless one uses a
"rootfstype=ext4" kernel parameter.
get_fstype ()
{
get_fstype() { local FS FSTYPE FSSIZE RET FS="${1}"
# vol_id has a more complete list of file systems,
# but fstype is more robust
eval $(fstype "${FS}" 2> /dev/null)
if [ "$FSTYPE" = "unknown" ] && [ -x
/lib/udev/vol_id ]; then
FSTYPE=$(/lib/udev/vol_id -t "${FS}" 2> /dev/null)
fi
RET=$?
if [ -z
"${FSTYPE}" ]; then
FSTYPE="unknown"
fi
echo "${FSTYPE}"
return ${RET}
}
