Package: kernel-package
Version: 8.135
Severity: important


I built packages for a 2.4.30 kernel.  Build got fine, but install didn't:

root@harris: /home/linux/debian -> dpkg -i kernel-image-2.4.30-k7-smp_1.0_i386.deb

dpkg: error processing kernel-image-2.4.30-k7-smp (--install):

Errors were encountered while processing:
 kernel-image-2.4.30-k7-smp

I am actually using LVM2 (the indicated device is my root fs) since early
days of my sarge install.  Installing the officiel kernel (version
indicated below) got fine, and I was already using LVM2 at that time (some
months ago).  I don't see why LVM2 should be prohibited in custom kernels
and not in official ones, this must be a bug in the generated kernel-image
install scripts...  or did mkinitrd changed meanwhile, introducing a new
(unwanted) requirement ?

Version: 0.1.84.2+rm

The initrd-tools package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.

For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/393092 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.

Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.

Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
