This means that vital module options cannot be passed to the initramfs system. For my laptop I need the line "options libata atapi_enabled=1" to be able to use my CD drive. For other systems (e.g. fibre channel with persistent binding) the problems will be more severe. Currently I am using a hook script in /etc/mkinitramfs/hooks to work around this problem: <script> #!/bin/sh PREREQ="" prereqs() { echo "$PREREQ" } case $1 in prereqs) prereqs exit 0 ;; esac cd /etc/modprobe.d mkdir -p ${DESTDIR}/etc/modprobe.d find . -depth | cpio -pdmu ${DESTDIR}/etc/modprobe.d 2>/dev/null </script> However I believe this should either be done by default in mkinitramfs, or a script like mine should be part of the mkinitramfs package. I don't see how doing this could do any harm. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14-rc5-mw Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages initramfs-tools depends on: ii busybox 1:1.01-3 Tiny utilities for small and embed ii cpio 2.6-8 GNU cpio -- a program to manage ar ii klibc-utils 1.1.1-2 small statically-linked utilities ii mklibs-copy 0.1.18 Shared library reduction script ii udev 0.071-1 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo initramfs-tools recommends no packages. -- no debconf information --------------------------------------- Received: (at 337318-close) by bugs.debian.org; 13 Dec 2005 15:11:05 +0000 >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Dec 13 07:11:05 2005 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from katie by spohr.debian.org with local (Exim 4.50) id 1EmBfH-0003st-Se; Tue, 13 Dec 2005 07:02:03 -0800 From: maximilian attems <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Katie: $Revision: 1.60 $ Subject: Bug#337318: fixed in initramfs-tools 0.44 Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sender: Archive Administrator <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2005 07:02:03 -0800 X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60-bugs.debian.org_2005_01_02 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on spohr.debian.org X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-6.0 required=4.0 tests=BAYES_00,HAS_BUG_NUMBER autolearn=no version=2.60-bugs.debian.org_2005_01_02 X-CrossAssassin-Score: 4 Source: initramfs-tools Source-Version: 0.44 We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of initramfs-tools, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive: initramfs-tools_0.44.dsc to pool/main/i/initramfs-tools/initramfs-tools_0.44.dsc initramfs-tools_0.44.tar.gz to pool/main/i/initramfs-tools/initramfs-tools_0.44.tar.gz initramfs-tools_0.44_all.deb to pool/main/i/initramfs-tools/initramfs-tools_0.44_all.deb A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is attached.
