Bug#924129: debian-installer: Kernel for armhf for stretch unbootable
Package: debian-installer
Version: 20170615+deb9u5+b2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear maintainers,
Debian kernel bug #922478 renders armhf systems unbootable. This bug was
fixed, but the debian-installer images still use (I presume) kernel
version 4.9.144-3, the unbootable version. I noticed this today while
trying to install a new system using:
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/stretch/main/installer-armhf/current/images/netboot/SD-card-images/firmware.Wandboard.img.gz
The installer worked when I overwrote the /vmlinuz in that image with
the one from the new 4.9.144-3.1.
Thanks,
Peter.
