Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.92l
Severity: normal
Hi,
Redboot partitioning (used by mtd devices) provides devices with names like
"mtd:foo". Unfortunately, when booting with root=mtd:foo, the "*:*" check in
parse_numeric is matched and things break (the code expects major:minor
numbers). This patch fixes that by explicitly checking for something that
starts with a number.

Subject: [PATCH] fix redboot partition support
Fix buglet in parse_numeric where *:* would match mtd:root. We only
want to match numbers. This fixes redboot partition support.
