The dracut command itself does not care about the kernel image /boot/vmlinuz..... at all. It only needs the kernel version number and the directory of the kernel modules. Therefore it does not care if a kernel image is installed at all.
IMO it's fine that only the postinst script of dracut checks if a kernel is installed. Maybe also /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dracut should check if a kernel image is installed, but AFAIK this is only executed by the kernel package, so we know that a kernel is really installed. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
