Bug 131229 – "System.map not found" warning when /usr is separate filesystem

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 104288
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Kernel 2006-04-25 08:01:09 UTC]

I have /usr as a separate filesystem.

And after each update of sys-apps/baselayout i see "System.map not found - unable to check symbols" warning at boot process (because /usr and other fs are not mouned at this step of boot process).

I think, the better way is searching this file in /usr/src/linux and in /boot directory too.

Here is a patch
