strace -f -o foo update-initramfs -u -v
It stopped at the following line as usual:
Building cpio /boot/initrd.img-3.16.0-4-amd64.new initramfs
The last few lines of the strace output:
12056 open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
12056 fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=2855152, ...}) = 0
12056 mmap(NULL, 2855152, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 3, 0) = 0x7f46dea0e000
12056 close(3) = 0
12056 sync(
I have tried this twice with the same screen output and strace output.
I'm not sure what to do next.
Thanks for any help.
