Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.112
Severity: normal
While installing a new kernel or updating initramfs update-initramfs fails to
add necessary firmware to the initramfs.
Quick'n dirty workaround:
I added
copy_exec "/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-6000g2b-6.ucode"
to the bottom of
manual_add_modules()
in
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions
