Yeah, there were some late changes to 10_linux regarding detection of a genkernel initramfs for a non-genkernel kernel. We might need to copy those over to 20_linux_xen as well. Can you confirm that you are building/installing your kernel without genkernel, and then only generating the initramfs with genkernel? (In reply to comment #1) > Can you confirm that you are building/installing your kernel without > genkernel, and then only generating the initramfs with genkernel? Absolutely correct. Kernel is done completely manual (menuconfig), the initramfs is done via "genkernel --mdadm --install initramfs". I think it should be fixed now. Look for the following ChangeLog message, and then re-install sys-boot/grub. + 31 Mar 2013; Mike Gilbert <floppym@gentoo.org> + +files/grub-2.00-20_linux_xen.patch, grub-2.00-r2.ebuild: + Fix detection of genkernel initramfs on xen. Yep, patch works. Thanks for the fast fix! |
