Package: udev Version: 0.100-1 Severity: wishlist
After the last udev update to 0.100-1 I've got 2 not booting boxes out of 2: after a couple of hours spent looking around I discovered that the initrd was not updated: the old initrd, created with 0.098-2, probably contained scripts that were not compatible with the new version. udev postinst scripts actually _do_ try to update the initrd, but update-initramfs systematically fails because "initrd was modified" (or "customized", I don't remember exactly what it says). I don't know if this behaviour of mkinitramfs is sane, but I think that it would be safer if a warning box appears in such cases which informs the user about what happened, what could be the consequences and how to force the generation of a new initrd. Thanks Mau -- Package-specific info: -- /etc/udev/rules.d/: /etc/udev/rules.d/: totale 8 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2005-04-10 18:38 020_permissions.rules -> ../permissions.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2005-10-19 22:45 025_libgphoto2.rules -> ../libgphoto2.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2006-08-04 20:57 025_libsane.rules -> ../libsane.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2005-12-14 20:31 025_logitechmouse.rules -> ../logitechmouse.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2006-06-09 21:34 025_lomoco.rules -> ../lomoco.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2006-08-31 23:42 libnjb.rules -> ../libnjb.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2005-03-03 23:32 udev.rules -> ../udev.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 2006-03-28 21:02 z20_persistent-input.rules -> ../persistent-input.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2005-08-31 23:46 z20_persistent.rules -> ../persistent.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1052 2006-08-31 23:42 z25_persistent-cd.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 401 2006-08-31 23:42 z25_persistent-net.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 2006-04-20 20:32 z45_persistent-net-generator.rules -> ../persistent-net-generator.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2005-07-09 20:49 z50_run.rules -> ../run.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2005-10-19 22:14 z55_hotplug.rules -> ../hotplug.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2005-09-01 01:12 z60_alsa-utils.rules -> ../alsa-utils.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2005-09-22 00:34 z60_hdparm.rules -> ../hdparm.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2006-04-12 19:18 z75_cd-aliases-generator.rules -> ../cd-aliases-generator.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2006-08-31 23:45 z99_hal.rules -> ../hal.rules -- /sys/: /sys/block/fd0/dev /sys/block/hda/dev /sys/block/hdb/dev /sys/block/hdb/hdb1/dev /sys/block/hdc/dev /sys/block/hdd/dev /sys/block/hde/dev /sys/block/hde/hde1/dev /sys/block/hde/hde2/dev /sys/block/hdg/dev /sys/block/hdg/hdg1/dev /sys/block/hdg/hdg2/dev /sys/block/hdg/hdg3/dev /sys/block/ram0/dev /sys/block/ram10/dev /sys/block/ram11/dev /sys/block/ram12/dev /sys/block/ram13/dev /sys/block/ram14/dev /sys/block/ram15/dev /sys/block/ram1/dev /sys/block/ram2/dev /sys/block/ram3/dev /sys/block/ram4/dev /sys/block/ram5/dev /sys/block/ram6/dev /sys/block/ram7/dev /sys/block/ram8/dev /sys/block/ram9/dev /sys/block/sda/dev /sys/block/sda/sda1/dev /sys/block/sda/sda2/dev /sys/block/sda/sda3/dev /sys/block/sda/sda5/dev /sys/block/sda/sda6/dev /sys/block/sda/sda7/dev /sys/block/sdb/dev /sys/block/sdc/dev /sys/block/sdd/dev /sys/block/sde/dev /sys/class/graphics/fb0/dev /sys/class/input/input0/event0/dev /sys/class/input/input1/event1/dev /sys/class/input/input1/mouse0/dev /sys/class/input/input1/ts0/dev /sys/class/input/input2/event2/dev /sys/class/input/mice/dev /sys/class/misc/agpgart/dev /sys/class/misc/device-mapper/dev /sys/class/misc/hpet/dev /sys/class/misc/hw_random/dev /sys/class/misc/psaux/dev /sys/class/misc/rtc/dev /sys/class/misc/snapshot/dev /sys/class/ppdev/parport0/dev /sys/class/printer/lp0/dev /sys/class/sound/adsp1/dev /sys/class/sound/adsp/dev /sys/class/sound/audio1/dev /sys/class/sound/audio/dev /sys/class/sound/controlC0/dev /sys/class/sound/controlC1/dev /sys/class/sound/dmmidi/dev /sys/class/sound/dsp1/dev /sys/class/sound/dsp/dev /sys/class/sound/midiC0D0/dev /sys/class/sound/midi/dev /sys/class/sound/mixer1/dev /sys/class/sound/mixer/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0c/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0p/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D1p/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D2c/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D2p/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC1D0c/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC1D0p/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC1D1c/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC1D2c/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC1D3c/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC1D4p/dev /sys/class/sound/seq/dev /sys/class/sound/sequencer2/dev /sys/class/sound/sequencer/dev /sys/class/sound/timer/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev1.1/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev1.4/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev2.1/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev3.1/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev3.2/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev3.3/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev4.1/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev4.2/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev5.1/dev /sys/class/video4linux/video0/dev -- Kernel configuration: -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (200, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-p4 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) (ignored: LC_ALL set to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Versions of packages udev depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libselinux1 1.30.27-2 SELinux shared libraries ii libvolume-id0 0.100-1 libvolume_id shared library ii lsb-base 3.1-15 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip udev recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
