I just found out that the kernel in /boot was not tracked by gentoo-kernel but created by installkernel. One question remains: how come there was a symlink for System.map created in the process, but nothing for the vmlinuz and initramfs? The mysterious symlink was due to a "backwards compatibility" feature of installkernel-gentoo. Essentially there is nothing to see here, sorry for the noise |
