Package: yaird
Version: 0.0.12-8bpo1
Severity: normal
This problem came about when attempting the work-around for this bug:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=343042
If one uses a rescue CD to run yaird, and the level of the kernel in the rescue
CD does not exactly match the target kernel, yaird fails, and you need to
reverse engineer yaird to figure out how to fix the paths.
In my case, I had copied the root partition from a parallel IDE hard drive to a
serial ATA hard drive.
The target kernel here was 2.6.14-2-386, and the kernel being executed was
2.6.14.3:
# chroot /tmp/root
# yaird -v -d -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.14.2.386
yaird: goal: template, prologue (/etc/yaird/Default.cfg:52)
yaird: action: prologue, {}
yaird: goal: module, fbcon (/etc/yaird/Default.cfg:56)
yaird error: can't open kernel config file /boot/config-2.6.14.3 (fatal)
I don't see any way to configure yaird for a different kernel (module path,
etc.) than the one you are running under.
