this problem is over for me now.

[Bug 364029] Re: boots into busybox with 2.6.28-11-generic kernel.
Can confirm the same thing with Karmic 2.6.31-5-generic kernel. When booting, i have a useless message: can't find system.map which exist in /boot (googling around, adding rootdelay=40 or + turn that message off), and then i failed in busybox needing to exit to continue the boot process. -- boots into busybox with 2.6.28-11-generic kernel. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364029 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 364029] Re: boots into busybox with 2.6.28-11-generic kernel.
Yes, it is slightly odd that the kernel is being configured while udev is only unpacked here, but that isn't the real issue. 'update-initramfs -u' may be called at any time, and it needs to work. (There is no support in the packaging system for anything like your timestamp idea, and I don't think it would work anyway; we need to update initramfses for reasons other than kernel installations.) I agree that 'update-initramfs -u' should not update all versions of the initramfs that it can find. However, I think it ought to update the newest version of each installed kernel flavour - so it should update 2.6.28-11-generic and 2.6.28-6-386, but not (say) 2.6.28-10-generic and 2.6.28-5-386 if those are also installed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/364029/comments/5 is entirely correct. There should be two tasks open on this bug report: * initramfs-tools: 'update-initramfs -u' should update newest versions of all installed flavours * linux: postinst should have a more sophisticated notion of whether to claim the /vmlinuz symlink (perhaps needs discussion to get the semantics exactly right) -- boots into busybox with 2.6.28-11-generic kernel. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364029 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 364029] Re: boots into busybox with 2.6.28-11-generic kernel.
Generally, I would think of update-initramfs not touching _all_ kernels rather a feature than a problem. For kernels that have not been touched (as the previous kernel demonstrates) this preserves integrity. I am not sure I completely understand the upgrade progress here. There seems to be one step of udev being done before the kernel generates the initramfs (adding diverts?). Does this mean between that and the final configuration udev is in an undefined/bad state? If that is true, maybe the solution could be to create a timestamp at the beginning of an installer run (if that does not already exist). The kernel always runs update-initramfs with the version number, so I assume udev runs it without a specific version and that triggers the default. This default would be changed to initrd files that have been modified since the installer started if the timestamp file is there.

[Bug 364029] Re: boots into busybox with 2.6.28-11-generic kernel.
Two problems, here: - when update-initramfs is triggered, it only updates what it perceives to be the "current" initramfs, leaving other initramfses demonstrably broken. - the "current" initramfs is determined as "the version pointed to by /vmlinuz", and that's going to be the last kernel *installed*, not necessarily the most *recent*, because the kernel-package-based postinst unconditionally claims /vmlinuz on install. -- boots into busybox with 2.6.28-11-generic kernel. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364029 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
