Updating the proposed change. This addresses the following: - Only run from the trigger stage when called from dpkg - Pass the same environmental flag as update-initramfs does (in theory there never should be need to generate an initrd) - Handle special case of installkernel called multiple times with the same version
** Patch added: "Proposed hirsute change (v2)" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-base/+bug/1877088/+attachment/5459430/+files/hirsute-linux-base.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to debianutils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1877088 Title: [UBUNTU 20.04] installkernel script does not symlink /boot/initrd.img which is required with the default zipl.conf Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems: In Progress Status in debianutils package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux-base package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: When testing development kernels I usually rely on the installkernel script either through the "make install" target of the Kernel source or manually. This used to work great on Ubuntu on Z. On Ubuntu 20.04 (freshly installed up to date) this fails however because /boot/initrd.img is not updated (/boot/vmlinuz is) and thus zipl installs the wrong kernel/initrd combination rendering the system unbootable.
