Public bug reported: Flash-kernel initramfs-tools hook, initramfs- tools/hooks/flash_kernel_set_root, doesn't know how to handle the use case where there's no valid rootfs device at /etc/fstab.
This was noticed when using linaro-media-create, as the fstab is only available at the last step of the rootfs setup, prompting the message to the user and blocking until control+d or enter is entered by the user. This can also happen in case the user installs a valid kernel package + flash-kernel in a chroot. Flash-kernel should just warn the user and move on, and just block in case there's a valid rootfs at /etc/fstab and the device can't be found. ** Affects: flash-kernel (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Ricardo Salveti (rsalveti) Status: Confirmed ** Changed in: flash-kernel (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: flash-kernel (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Changed in: flash-kernel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: flash-kernel (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Ricardo Salveti (rsalveti) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1034734 Title: flash-kernel shouldn't prompt the user when updating initramfs in case there's no valid /etc/fstab To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flash-kernel/+bug/1034734/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
