Package: kernel-package Version: 12.032 Severity: normal
I'm building a old 2.6.18 kernel with dom0 Xen 3.3 support. From what I understand Xen 3.3 does not support the bzImage format, so I tried to make-kpkg with the --zimage option. While building I see the following line: exec debian/rules INITRD=YES IMAGE_TYPE=zImage kernel_image However, the build eventually fails with: cp: cannot stat `arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage': No such file or directory make[1]: *** [debian/stamp/install/linux-image-2.6.18.8-dom0] Error 1 This seems to be that its still trying to build/use the bzImage even though I specify the --zimage flag. I found I could fix this problem by hacking the /usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/arches/amd64.mk file and changing the line which unconditially says "target = bzImage" to "target = vmlinuz". Has support for the zimage flag been dropped? If so why? Or has this option just been broken. thanks -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages kernel-package depends on: ii binutils 2.20-6 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii build-essential 11.4 Informational list of build-essent ii debianutils 3.2.2 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii file 5.04-1 Determines file type using "magic" ii gettext 0.17-8 GNU Internationalization utilities ii make 3.81-7 An utility for Directing compilati ii module-init-tools 3.12~pre1-1 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii po-debconf 1.0.16 tool for managing templates file t ii util-linux 2.16.2-0 Miscellaneous system utilities Versions of packages kernel-package recommends: ii cpio 2.10-1 GNU cpio -- a program to manage ar Versions of packages kernel-package suggests: pn btrfs-tools <none> (no description available) ii bzip2 1.0.5-4 high-quality block-sorting file co pn docbook-utils <none> (no description available) ii e2fsprogs 1.41.9-1 ext2/ext3/ext4 file system utiliti pn grub | grub2 <none> (no description available) ii initramfs-tools [linux-in 0.93.4 tools for generating an initramfs pn jfsutils <none> (no description available) ii libncurses5-dev [libncurs 5.7+20090803-2 developer's libraries and docs for pn linux-source | kernel-sou <none> (no description available) pn mcelog <none> (no description available) ii oprofile 0.9.6-1 system-wide profiler for Linux sys pn pcmciautils <none> (no description available) ii ppp 2.4.4rel-10.1 Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) - da ii procps 1:3.2.8-2 /proc file system utilities pn quota <none> (no description available) pn reiserfsprogs <none> (no description available) pn squashfs-tools <none> (no description available) ii udev 150-2 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo pn xfsprogs <none> (no description available) pn xmlto <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- debsums errors found: debsums: changed file /usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/arches/amd64.mk (from kernel-package package) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
