Bug#336567: postinst fails runnng modprobe on 'ext3,ext2'
Package: yaird
Version: 0.0.11-10
Severity: serious
I have an /etc/fstab with lines of the form:
/dev/hda2 / ext3,ext2 errors=remount-ro 0 1
ie. for filesystem, try ext3 first, if this cannot be done, use ext2.
Recent versions of mount understand this syntax, but yairds' postinst barfs on
it:
Setting up linux-image-2.6.14-1-686 (2.6.14-1) ...
Using /usr/sbin/mkinitrd.yaird to build the ramdisk.
Full list of probed ramdisk generating tools : /usr/sbin/mkinitrd /usr/sbin/mkinitrd.yaird /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs.
yaird error: error running modprobe ext3,ext2 (fatal)
