Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-sparc64
Version: 2.4.27-1
Severity: important

After apt update from Kernel 2.4.26 to 2.4.27
Added initrd=/initrd.img to silo.conf which is a link to
/boot/initrd.img-2.4.27-1-sparc64  but the file is is zero length and
causes SILO to exit with a "Trap 5" error.

I tried to use mkinitrd to create the file, but this also produced a
zero length initrd file. So this may be a clue.

Kernel 2.6.8 seems to have the same problem.

Many thanks

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.
