Hello Charles. Can you write the full command ? I don't understand what you mean with " find … -type f …". I'm orienting myself to use this :
find . -depth | cpio --create --format='newc' > /boot/$CURRENT_KERNEL_VERSION_NO_GZ as suggested by Thomas. In this command I don't see any "-type f". Very much.
