Please apply the attached patch > (or a similar one) to disable it for that case. I don't think this patch is correct. An initramfs may still be needed for a non-modular kernel if, for instance, the root filesystem is encrypted and you need to prompt for a passphrase. Instead we need to fix update-initramfs itself to not fail on a non-modular kernel. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
