Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.91e
Severity: important

Hi, I encountered the following boot failure on my alpha machine.
When linux-image-2.6.22-3-alpha-generic came into testing,
my system failed to boot with the initrd.img generated by initramfs-tools
but it still booted with the initrd.img generated by yaird so
I suspect this is a bug of initramfs-tools.

However, linux-image-2.6.24-alpha-generic failed to boot with
initrd.img generated both initramfs-tools and yaird.

The messages when it failed to boot were as follows:

RAMDISK driver initialized: 16 RAM disks of 8192K size 1024 blocksize
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1

initrd.img-2.6.22-3-alpha-generic.yaird is what I backed up for 
later use if necessary.

initrd.img-2.6.22-3-alpha-generic is what initramfs-tools geneted
this morning. I booted with 2.6.22-2 and generated initrd.img
with a command dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.22-3-alpha-generic
after setting up /etc/kernel-img.conf for initramfs-tools.

Regards.

rechecking that issue it still very much looks more like
a linux-2.6 bug on alpha.

anyway if you can still reproduce with recent stable or testing
please holler loudly and bug will be reopened.


thanks for your report.
