Bug#631719: abootimg: can create invalid images

2011-06-26 Thread Julian Andres Klode 
Package: abootimg
Version: 0.3-1
Severity: normal

If the initramfs is too large, abootimg creates
an invalid image which cannot be used and not
even extracted by abootimg itself, extraction
failing with:

  debian.bin: Bad address
  *** glibc detected *** abootimg: free(): invalid next size (normal): 
0x0121c910 ***

It seems that the new upstream version can successfully
read back those files, although they do not actually
work on my test device (the Toshiba AC100).

It should be fixed upstream in my git tree, stupid typo error (I've 
never used ramdisk bigger than kernel...):

What do you mean by it does not work on your ac100 ?

Thanks,
Gilles.
