Clean up a bogus and cosmetic error introduced by the symlink patch: ${GK_SHARE}/gen_funcs.sh: line 431: popd: /var/tmp/genkernel/3996.6301.23048.13838/initramfs-modules-${KV}-temp: No such file or directory
Created attachment 126050 [details, diff] 0004-Cleanup-of-bogus-error-output.patch
This patch doesn't even make sense to me. How does changing to that directory before trying to remove it with the full path help anything?
Existing code in gen_initramfs.sh: append_modules() first: First the existing code takes us into a directory cd "${TEMP}/initramfs-modules-${KV}-temp/" Then it makes the cpio find . | cpio ${CPIO_ARGS} --append -F "${CPIO}" Now the directory gets removed rm -r "${TEMP}/initramfs-modules-${KV}-temp/" At this point you are in the directory that was just removed. popd will give you an error unless you go to somewhere that does exist. You are in the non-existent directory, you run pushd /boot, and then run popd afterwards, and it spews the error. Thus error is triggered via copy_image_with_preserve (gen_funcs.sh): pushd ${BOOTDIR} >/dev/null ... popd >/dev/null
Ah, I see. I misunderstood where the error was coming from. I assumed it was when the directory was removed. That's what I get for assuming :)

Please test genkernel 3.4.9_prer1 or better. This should be fixed now.
I'm still seeing this in sys-kernel/genkernel-3.4.10_pre9. * Gentoo Linux Genkernel; Version 3.4.10_pre9 * Running with options: --splash=livecd-2007.0 --disklabel --install --kernel-config=/usr/src/linux-2.6.25-gentoo/.config --bootloader=grub --symlink all * Linux Kernel 2.6.25-gentoo-r1 for x86... * kernel: >> Running mrproper... * config: Using config from /usr/src/linux-2.6.25-gentoo/.config * Previous config backed up to .config.bak * >> Running oldconfig... * kernel: >> Cleaning... * >> Compiling 2.6.25-gentoo-r1 bzImage... * >> Compiling 2.6.25-gentoo-r1 modules... * Copying config for successful build to /etc/kernels/kernel-config-x86-2.6.25-gentoo-r1 * busybox: >> Applying patches... * busybox: >> Configuring... * busybox: >> Removing stale cache... * busybox: >> Compiling... * busybox: >> Copying to cache... * initramfs: >> Initializing... * >> Appending base_layout cpio data... * >> Appending auxilary cpio data... * >> Appending busybox cpio data... * >> Appending modules cpio data... * >> Appending blkid cpio data... * >> Appending splash cpio data... * >> Installing splash [ using the livecd-2007.0 theme ]... /usr/share/genkernel/gen_funcs.sh: line 427: popd: /var/tmp/genkernel/32180.16855.26784.5739/initramfs-splash-temp: No such file or directory * * Adding kernel to /boot/grub/grub.conf... * * Kernel compiled successfully! * * Required Kernel Parameters: * real_root=/dev/$ROOT * * Where $ROOT is the device node for your root partition as the * one specified in /etc/fstab * * If you require Genkernel's hardware detection features; you MUST * tell your bootloader to use the provided INITRAMFS file.

as far as I see, the "harmless error" is still there.
