Description Andreas Thalhammer 2005-02-23 03:36:16 UTC
After upgrading to genkernel-3.1.0j I get the following error message on boot-up:
/linuxrc: 450: /tmp/.initrd/bin/[ not found
(or similar, because there is no log of the message in dmesg or in any file in /var/log!!)
It's not critical though, because the system starts without other errors.

grub.conf:

title=gentoo26
    savedefault
    kernel (hd0,1)/kernel-gentoo26 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc real_root=/dev/hda5 gentoo=nodevfs udev video=radeonfb:mtrr,ywrap,1400x1050-32 splash=off hda=10337,240,63 lapic
    initrd (hd0,1)/initrd-gentoo26


Other things that may be importaint:
I use gcc with the "hardened" use-flag (and "pic" of course).
The error occured with recent 2.6 and 2.4 kernels.
I do not use KEYWORDS="~x86".
I don't use bootsplash or gensplash, so I get "splash: did not find a bootsplash for <XxY> resolution..." errors, but it isn't the source if this error.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. genkernel --udev --no-initrdmodules --kernel-config=config-R51-1 all
2. symbolically link kernel and initrd to kernel-gentoo26 and initrd-gentoo26 (so I don't have to change GRUB's config)
3.
