Bug#384967: initramfs-tools fails to upgrade if lilo is not installed
Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.76 Severity: important Hi all, I've seen lots of discussion already on the initramfs/lilo dependency when people are using grub, but I didn't see any report of my issue. I'm using grub only (lilo is not installed) on my machine and during the last 2 upgrades of initramfs-tools I received the following error message : update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-2-k7 /usr/sbin/update-initramfs: line 88: lilo: command not found I resolved the issue with a simple touch /usr/sbin/lilo chmod +x /usr/sbin/lilo But I wondered what would have happened if lilo WAS installed. As I'm using grub it would certainly have broken my boot... If I remember correctly the issue started with 0.75 (at least I remember only having to use the above workaround only twice). Let me know if you need more info, I'll be glad to help.
