Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.84
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

The init-top/framebuffer script has the following lines (83 - 92):

if [ -e /proc/fb ]; then
	while read fbno desc; do
		mknod /dev/fb$fbno c 29 $fbno
	done < /proc/fb

	mknod /dev/fb0 c 29 0
	for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8; do
		mknod /dev/tty$i c 4 $i
	done
fi

The problem is that the "mknod /dev/fb0" will be executed twice if fb0 has already been found in /proc/fb. The fix would be to change it to:

if [ -e /proc/fb ]; then
	while read fbno desc; do
		mknod /dev/fb$fbno c 29 $fbno
	done < /proc/fb

	if [ ! -e /dev/fb0 ]; then
		mknod /dev/fb0 c 29 0
	fi

	for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8; do
		mknod /dev/tty$i c 4 $i
	done
fi
