Re: [Trisquel-users] Initramfs problems ...

[leestrobel]

I had originally intended to use the shared /boot partition to simplify  
things, so I could use the same kernel and grub.cfg to boot up both systems.  
But, that doesn't seem to work, because Trisquel uses an initramfs and LFS  
doesn't. So, my /boot partition is becoming a bit of a mess of different  
kernel versions. I guess I could look at giving each system its own /boot  
folder on their /root partitions and see if that is easier to manage.

However, it's not just about the lack of space on /root - the fact that  
Synaptic is updating the initram image for the newest installed kernel,  
rather than the one that is running, is annoying. Although, the root cause of  
that is the fact that the trackpad driver with the newer Trisquel 8 kernel is  
bad. So, to solve that, I would probably need to send a bug report to the  
kernel devs ... problems, more problems ... :)
