Package: initrd-tools Version: 0.1.81.1 Symptom: /usr/sbin/mkinitrd fails to create the initrd image
Cause: When mkinitrd calls for mkcramfs (at line 1413 in this version) his working directory appears to be set to "/tmp/mkinitrd.[randomstring]/initrd" instead of ".". The newly created image is deleted as soon as the mkinitrd scripts ends and removes the tmp direcory. Solution: Backup the working directory in a shell variable and then call mkcramfs with the correct path for the output file
