thank you very much. applied your 3 changes to branch maks/hooks on http://git.debian.org/?p=kernel/initramfs-tools.git;a=summary please review before I'd merge into master for next upload. I'm not sure if the indirection to STDERR is needed for make deb-pkg, but it shouldn't hurt there? you may want to have a look at for initramfs-tools dev http://git.debian.org/?p=kernel/initramfs-tools.git;a=blob_plain;f=docs/maintainer-notes.html;h=eeceafdfc498bd6585328d1eeb52e6e454d524ee;hb=HEAD changes in git send-email or online git repo are easier to handle. > Although not strictly within your jurisdiction, I will also send you > another e-mail soon with links to my proposed boot loader hook script > for lilo and zipl.
