I'm having the same problem. I use make-kpkg like I've
always used it to build the kernel. But it does not
create an initrd.

I copied the /etc/kernel initrd scripts from examples and it works right now.
Why did I have to do this? Seems like, if initramfs-tools is installed, it
ought to copy them in, or if yaird is installed, it ought to copy those in.

I'll try.
Why has initrd generation support been dropped?
It has not.

From a user perspective:
Build a kernel using

It results in an unbootable system when using 12.017.

Oh ok. I see this is how it is supposed to work now, so we're fine.
Thanks for the help

- used 2.6.30-rc3 tarbal from kernel.org

/etc/kernel/postinst.d/
- removed 'lilo' from /etc/kernel/postinst.d/symlink_hook
- did a make-kpkg with --initrd flag
Additional information: I now upgraded initramfstools (shouldn't
kernel-package have dependencies?) and an initrd is created.
The initrd is not good though: the system won't come up. Complains that
it can't find the volume groups. It does see a /dev/sda* though. Was an

A) What should kernel-package depend on? yaird? initramfs-tools?
B) By default, if ou do not use --initrd, you do not need either

Hi,
after the latest upgrade, initramfs creation is broken.
I've created a kernel package via
make-kpkg --initrd ...
I even copied

Hi,
A bug in an example script surely is notimportant. You can
easily put in place a different, non-broken script.
Having said that, the fix will be in the next upload.
