Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mindi
I have a generic installation of 10.04 on a Dell Inspiron 500m laptop (2 GB RAM, 30 GB HD). I specified the EXT4 filesystem during installation. I installed mondo/mindi from the Ubuntu Software Center (or they were installed by default, I don't remember now...). When I attempt to generate a rescue boot CD, I encountered the message above. Please note that to repair an issue I encountered after installation of 10.04 on the laptop, I applied the fix that resulted in the installation of /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.34-020634-generic. Is this an issue with mindi? I attempted to research this issue with mindi and found some information on their wiki at this link: http://trac.mondorescue.org/wiki/FAQ#Q4HowdoIcreatemymindiFailsafekernel It specifies the following commands to prepare a mindi failsafe kernel: used # cd /usr/share/mindi # cp /boot/vmlinuz-x.y.zz vmlinuz # tar cfj lib.tar.bz2 /lib/modules/x.y.zz However, the /usr/share/mindi directory does not exist as a result of the "standard" 10.04 install of mondo/mindi. So, should I create this directory into which I copy the kernel file, or should the kernel file be copied elsewhere? I also looked in the Landscape KB for issues on mondo/mindi, but found no hits for either (which seemed surprising). Did I miss something obvious? I want to image my new 10.04 installation to an external USB 1 TB harddrive (failsafe), then test access to that image after booting from the rescue CD. Is this a bug or simply a configuration disconnect between mindi and 10.04? Thanks.
