The symlink of /initrd.img should point to boot/initrd.img-<v> and not to /boot/initrd.img-<v> just like vmlinuz does.



reassign 763348 src:linux
thanks


Hey,

I'm reassigning your bug to Debian Kernel Team (src:linux) as it is the
appropriate package for your bug.


A short summary of the original filling:

If /nfsfolder/client1 is the nfsroot of a "client1" debian computer,
then /nfsfolder/client1/initrd.img exists, and it points to
/boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-4-486 instead of
/nfsfolder/client1/boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-4-486. This happens because an
absolute symlink is used instead of a relative.

Example: ln -s initrd.img /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-4-486 instead of ln -s
initrd.img boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-4-486.

Submitter would expect that the script that creates that symlink
(/initrd.img) drops the "/" and uses relative path.
