Name : mkinitrd
Product : Fedora 10
Version : 6.0.71
Release : 6.fc10
URL : git://git.fedoraproject.org/git/hosted/mkinitrd
Summary : Creates an initial ramdisk image for preloading modules.
Description :
mkinitrd creates filesystem images for use as initial ram filesystem
(initramfs) images. These images are used to find and mount the root
filesystem.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Fix mkinitrd creating a non booting initrd when parted-devel is installed and
the user has made configuration changes resulting in ld.so searching /usr/lib
before /lib (#502221) Note that if you are impacted by this bug, then in
order to benifit from this update you need to regenerate your initrd like this:
KVER=######-#### mv /boot/initrd-$(KVER).img /boot/initrd-$(KVER).img.old
mkinitrd /boot/initrd-$(KVER).img $(KVER) Where KVER should be set to the
kernel version-release for the non-bootable kernel you are trying to fix. This
is the string between "initrd-" and ".img" when you do a: ls /boot You can
find the version-release string for all installed kernels by doing: rpm -q --qf
"%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}\n" kernel This will print the full name-version-
release.arch for each installed kernel followed by the version-release.
