Package: linux-image-2.6-686 Version: 2.6.26+17+lenny1 Severity: normal Upgrading the diskless servers that were originally booting off cramfs ramdisks to lenny makes these servers unbootable: the cramfs is no longer compiled into the kernel, but it is rather built as a loadable kernel module (CONFIG_CRAMFS=m). To load this module, the initrd must be loaded first, but that requires the cramfs module. Catch 22.
Is there any particular reason not to compile the cramfs into the kernel as it was done in all the previous releases? -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages linux-image-2.6-686 depends on: ii linux-image-2.6.26-2-686 2.6.26-15 Linux 2.6.26 image on PPro/Celeron linux-image-2.6-686 recommends no packages. linux-image-2.6-686 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
