which is required
Ubuntu Kernels in their postinst call linux-update-symlinks $change
$version $image_path to setup correct links.
This was not done by installkernel script, and a broken xx-update-
initrd-links script is being added to postinst.d that does not correctly
handle link_in_boot setting and breaks
Possibly a regression is being reported

action. If determined to not be a regression, please remove the

Need to take a deeper look into it later but I really think I have added

The kernel installation via debs always created the link. Just the
installkernel command which is not part or the kernel packages had the
issue of only moving around the kernel links but not the initrd ones.
The case which I was working on was having a system which only had
kernels install via
The second attempt seems to have been made without undoing the files and
links created by the old setup. The cases to handle with that mix get
rather hard to handle. So if possible I would rather ask for to check
whether the updated script works in a clean environment forward before

Could someone try to put the attached script into /etc/kernel/postinst.d

** Attachment added: "Copy to /etc/kernel/postinst.d/xx-update-initrd-links"
The script responsible for updating the /boot/initrd.img symlink is
called `linux-update-symlinks`. If a kernel is installed without that
script being run, the symlink will not be updated.
The only place where `linux-update-symlinks` is run is inside each of

This is bad, it should be quite impossible to get /boot/initrd.img &
/boot/vmlinuz symlinks out of sync!
The only relevant thing that I can think of is us dropping the /etc
/kernel-img.conf file
Previously, /etc/kernel-img.conf contained
# Kernel image management overrides
# See
I also wonder, if we can stop using initrds on s390x. In most public
clouds we build kernel config to include the storage modules, such that
we can simply boot direct to rootfs without an initrd. This speeds up
the boot process quite a bit.
Do you think we should support and/or default to
$ sudo make modules_install
$ sudo make install
But that would not create initrd, would it?
I would expect for you to also call
$ update-initramfs -k 5.4.27
no?
To generate the initrd for the newly installed kernel, and update the
symlink to point at it?

So you used installkernel directly rather than make install.
installkernel is shipped with debianutils
A quick look at the changelog (installkernel) didn't showed any changes this
year.
So the script itself seems to be stable and unchanged...
