2010-07-08mkinitramfs: Provide error code of failed mkinitramfs creationmaximilian attems
We better print them out before exiting, this should allow quicker diagnose of what is going on. Be sure to print out all error codes as a failure of compress is highly likely to generate an SIGPIPE aka error code 141. Silent error exits are troublesome for debugging error cause.

Enhance manpage to target casual reader, who wants to know more about his kernel commandline. The boot/mkinitramfs hook hacker may easily read on, so move their desc a bit down. Add errexit hint of hook scripts. Also enhance a better written § from dracut, the current one was just jibberish.

2010-06-16hook-functions: do not install ubi module by default via auto_add_modules()Michael Prokop
d-i does not support UBI/UBIFS yet and adding ubi.ko it by default to initrd when MODULES=most is set doesn't provide any benefits yet. Therefore don't waste ~125kb disk space by default, instead leave the installation of ubi to d-i through a hook. Signed-off-by: Michael Prokop <mika@debian.org>
2010-06-16hook-functions/init/scripts/local: add support for ubifs.Martin Michlmayr
MODULES=dep fails when / is ubifs. This patch adds support for something like root=ubi0:rootfs when ubi is modular. Quoting Martin: It essentially does three things: - adds the correct modules to the ramdisk (for MODULES=dep and MODULES=most) - reads ubi.mtd= from the command line - loads ubi with the ubi.mtd info and ignores the "Waiting for root" check I've successfully tested this with a kernel with modular ubi and with the following boot variants: console=ttyS0,115200 ubi.mtd=2 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs console=ttyS0,115200 ubi.mtd=2 root=ubi0_0 rootfstype=ubifs With console=ttyS0,115200 ubi.mtd=2 root=/dev/ubi0_0 rootfstype=ubifs I get an error that it cannot mount root but I suspect this is an ubifs error and has nothing to do with i-t (since at this point I can manually mount it with -t ubifs ubi0_0 whereas the /dev/ variant doesn't work). Tested with MODULES=dep and MODULES=most as well as with a kernel that has ubifs built in.

2010-06-16initramfs-tools: work around 'find -printf %Y' bugColin Watson
The change to filter out looping or broken symlinks from the initramfs, written by me for Ubuntu and applied to Debian for #575157, tickles a bug in find (which I think also had an associated Debian bug, but I've been unable to find it): https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?29460 This was fixed in 4.5.8, which is currently only in experimental. In any case findutils is very deep in the dependency chain for upgrades and I believe it would be a good idea to avoid requiring a new version of it (I've had problems quite recently with strict dependencies on findutils causing unresolvable dependency loops). The following patch works around this bug in a reasonably straightforward way. [ debian findutils bug was #576772 ] Signed-off-by: maximilian attems <maks@debian.org>
