Bug#337176: initramfs-tools: initrd unusable on amd64



Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.37
Severity: normal

The generated initrd has ld.so in /lib, but no /lib64 symlink.  But the ELF
interpreter of all amd64 binaries points to /lib64.  So the kernel fails to
load /bin/sh.

I'm going to try with the directory manually created next.

-- System Information:
Debian Release: testing/unstable
  APT prefers unstable
  APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable')
Architecture: amd64 (x86_64)
Shell:  /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash
Kernel: Linux 2.6.14-rc5
Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1)

Versions of packages initramfs-tools depends on:
ii  busybox                       1:1.01-3   Tiny utilities for small and embed
ii  cpio                          2.6-8      GNU cpio -- a program to manage ar
ii  klibc-utils                   1.1.1-2    small statically-linked utilities 
ii  mklibs-copy                   0.1.18     Shared library reduction script
ii  udev                          0.071-1    /dev/ and hotplug management daemo

initramfs-tools recommends no packages.
