Description Fabio Erculiani 2006-08-27 04:27:27 UTC 
To support /emul libraries on a LiveCD, I always need to add "emul" to ROOT_LINKS variable in initrd.defaults. But to do this, I must use sed, since the file has been generated using cpio, I suppose.
to achieve this:

  ROOT_LINKS='bin sbin lib lib32 lib64 boot usr opt emul'

just run:

  sed -i 's/boot usr opt/boot usr opt emul/' /usr/share/genkernel/generic/initrd.defaults

Thanks :)

I've seen that it is fixed in genkernel 3.4.0 ?
btw, if it is, just close this bug.

I've added this to CVS, so it'll appear in the next genkernel version.
