uswsusp shipps too an resume binary in initramfs-tools. Thus tighten
again klibc dep to 1.4.11-1. (closes: 381535)
* mkinitramfs: Readd mdrun when around.

* mkinitramfs: Treat /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf.d config snippets as
the configuration files in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d. A configuration
file with the same name will override the first. (closes: 381315)
Thanks Vagrant Cascadian <email address hidden> for the patch.
* mkinitramfs.8: Document conf.d existence.
* hooks/lvm: Really remove it, logic is in mkinitramfs.
* urgency high for the mdraid bug fix, rest is trivial.
initramfs-tools (0.73c) unstable; urgency=low

breakage cause is known. Thus downgrade klibc dep to 1.4.8-0. Thanks
Steinar H. Gunderson <email address hidden> for report. (closes: #381475)
initramfs-tools (0.73b) unstable; urgency=high
* Revert nfs change in 0.70: Debian busybox is build with CONFIG_NFSMOUNT=n.

(closes: 380686). High urgency to get this into testing.
initramfs-tools (0.73) unstable; urgency=high

section everywhere as last. Fix linebreak in mkinitramfs.8 options.
Thanks Martin Michlmayr <email address hidden> for the notice.
* scripts/functions: Use shell parameter expansion to strip known dir
prefix instead of gratious basename call.
* scripts/functions: On panic call open the rescue shell with -i to get
dash interactive features. ash from busybox ignores the param.
Thanks David Härdeman <david@2gen.com> for the suggestion.
* conf/initramfs.conf: Readd BUSYBOX=y section. Beware that a lot of boot
scripts need busybox and the current default image still does too.
* initramfs.conf: Document BUSYBOX usage.
* init: Add variable quoting around resume, NORESUME parsing and checks.
* hook-functions: Add myri10ge and smc911x to the net section. Add hptiop to

when a dir gets passed. Clean up check_minkver() logic.
* scripts/function, mkinitramfs: Add output on verbose mode.
* merge 0.69ubuntu4.
* scripts/local-top/lvm: Prereqs s/md/mdadm/ for the new hooks.

* Be more careful about vi dot files, removed.
Thanks Frederik Schüler <email address hidden> for review.
initramfs-tools (0.70) unstable; urgency=low
* mkinitramfs: Don't include static kinit, nor gzip. They are the biggest
klibc-utils binaries and we don't use them. Keep static gunzip, zcat and
shared kinit for now.

- hook-functions: Fix kernel typo.
- hooks/kernelextras: Fix comment and add vga16fb too.

Add trailing slash to copy command. (closes: 378089)
* mkinitramfs: Revert the removal of kernel-package supported lonng param
of 0.65. Readd that plain ugly interface. Warn users they should use
ramdisk=mkinitramfs-kpkg. As kernel-package doesn't yet support
update-initramfs. Thanks Frans Pop <email address hidden> for report.
* debian/bug: Rename to script so that it shows up in reportbug.
Fix debian/initramfs-tools.install accordingly.
* Thus high urgency upload.
initramfs-tools (0.69ubuntu22) feisty; urgency=low
* For copy_module_dir, actually call manual_module for each one, so deps are
taken care of.
initramfs-tools (0.69ubuntu16) edgy; urgency=low
* Bring in preinst fixes from Debian, including s/configure/install/ in
preinst, since preinst is never called with "configure", and checking
for /proc/swaps before we blindly try to read it to determine RESUME.
* Do away with the bogus '-n "$2"' test in preinst, since "install" can
be called without any arguments at all (and often is, on a clean setup)
* On upgrades, revert the RESUME mangling that dapper's d-i did to our
config file, avoiding spurious conffile prompts (launchpad.net/63693)
initramfs-tools (0.69ubuntu15) edgy; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.69ubuntu3) edgy; urgency=low
* debian/initramfs-tools.install, debian/initramfs-tools.preinst,
debian/initramfs-tools.postinst: Copy default modules file in the
postinst (when it's actually available) rather than in the preinst (when
it isn't). Copy it from /usr/share/initramfs-tools/ rather than from
/usr/share/doc/initramfs-tools/examples/, per policy.
initramfs-tools (0.69ubuntu2) edgy; urgency=low

Add a big fat warning that this not yet supported. Helps to do the
klibc-utils work.
* mkinitramfs: Run depmod if no /lib/modules/${version}/modules.dep exists.
Solves initramfs creation for handbuild upstream Xen targets.
Thanks to Klaus Ita <email address hidden> for the report.

migration of the mkinitrd settings in the preinst. (closes: #376604) Thanks
for the checks to Justin Pryzby <email address hidden>.
* debian/initramfs-tools.preinst: Reorder. Generate an modules file similar
to the one we ship. This should minimize Sarge upgrade prompting if no
relevant modules where added to /etc/mkinitrd/modules.
* conf/modules: Make it more similar to /etc/mkinitrd/modules.
* Set urgency high for RC fixes upload.
Thanks Steinar H. Gunderson <email address hidden> for the review.
initramfs-tools (0.67) unstable; urgency=high
Release bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
* scripts/local: Fix typo in log_begin_msg. (closes: #375880)
* update-initramfs: Generate initramfs for current version if there is no
sha1sum and no initrd exists yet - regression from 0.65. (closes: #375671)
Thanks martin f krafft <email address hidden> for report.
* conf/initramfs.conf, initramfs.conf(5): Drop RESUME section.
* debian/initramfs-tools.preinst: Don't modify conffile initramfs.tools -
drop the corresponding code. (closes: #376008)
* initramfs-tools(8): Document that RESUME is tried to be autodected and
written to /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume on install.
* scripts/functions: Replace expr use with printf for skipping comments on
/etc/modules. Works on both busybox ash and klibc dash. Prefix space is
ignored by both.
* scripts/local-top/lvm: Remove harmless warnings if a volumegroup is under
/dev/mapper but not an lvm device. (closes: 376311)
Thanks David Härdeman <david@2gen.com> for the patch.
* scripts/local-top/lvm: Change activate_vg() to return 1 if no volumegroup
is found.
* debian/initramfs-tools.dirs: Add usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf.d entry.
* mkinitramfs: Add stuff to the conf.d directory also from aboves directory.
* Set urgency to high to get the RC bugfix into testing.
initramfs-tools (0.66) unstable; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.65) unstable; urgency=low
* scripts/local-top/lvm: Activate root and resume volume group.
The initialization got refractored in an function. (closes: #374891)
Thanks for the patch to David Härdeman <david@2gen.com>.
* scripts/local-top/lvm: Be careful to activate volume group on lilo boot
too. Although in that case we don't know the precise volume group, we
activate them all. Matches behaviour of previous hook.
* hooks/lvm: Add dm-mirror, allows to boot from an unfinished pvmove.
(closes: #374378)
* mkinitramfs: Remove old kernel-package supported long param.
kernel-package uses since 10.036 mkinitramfs-kpkg.
* update-initramfs: Show by default which initramfs gets generated.
(closes: #364301)
* Resync with 0.40ubuntu32:
- Make prereqs conditional on the script/hook actually existing. From
now on, this means that 'PREREQ="udev"' means "run udev first, iff it
happens to be installed". Having the files exist on the filesystem if
you have a HARD dependency should be enforced with package dependencies.
(closes: #369617)
- Make "update-initramfs -u" try to find the running kernel *after* it
attempts to search the symbolic link list and its own sha1 list.
Using this as a fallback, rather than the default, should solve most
upgrade issues, where people found their initramfs was half-baked.
- Abstract out the kernel minversion checking stuff into the function
library, so we can reuse it to check minversion requirements for hook
scripts as well (such as udev, which requires >= 2.6.15 in dapper)
- Bump the kernel minversion to 2.6.15 on hppa and ia64, since they used
initrd-tools with their 2.6.12 kernels in breezy, not initramfs-tools.
- If mkinitramfs fails due to minversion not being met, don't bail out
of update-initramfs, but just exit 0, so upgrades don't halt on it.
* debian/initramfs-tools.postrm: We no longer need to explicitly remove
/etc/initramfs-tools/modules.
initramfs-tools (0.64) unstable; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.62) unstable; urgency=low

had hooks, which don't load ide-disk automatically for 2.6.15 kernels.
Can't lower dependency to sarge version as it has no coldplug support
to escape udev dependency loop on upgrade. (closes: #358360, #362816)
* hook-functions: Add arcmsr to the scsi modules list.

* init: Use 10M as tmpfs_size for the udev /dev, that can be overriden in
/etc/udev/udev.conf. (closes: #352434)
* /etc/initramfs-tools: Use the much more intituive conf dir location.
Thanks for the idea to Andres Salomon <email address hidden>.
* debian/initramfs-tools.preinst: mv /etc/mkinitramfs /etc/initramfs-tools
on upgrade as this should work even with drive space issues.
Thanks to Jeff Bailey <email address hidden> for the posix atomic
mv hint and Daniel Blaschke <email address hidden> for testing.
* mkinitramfs: Set CONFDIR to /etc/initramfs-tools.
* mkinitramfs.8, initramfs-tools.8: Document the new pathes.

the udev premount script to the local mountroot() function where it truly
belongs.
- scripts/local-top/udev_helper: Leave the remaining ide-generic part

filename - the filenames get used as shell variable. (closes: #344639)

<email address hidden> from the ubuntu udev hook. We now wait on scsi
and usb devices to settle, load ide-generic on ide boot only if
no root device appeared.
The udev hook is adding ide.agent so no longer duplicate that code.
* hook-functions: auto_add_modules, split 1000 char wide lines up.
Should allow better diffing. Splitting them out in proper files with
each modules / line costs too much initramfs generation time.
Should allow easier diffing.

* update-initramfs: set_current_version needs to check against
/boot/initrd-`uname -r` and not /boot/vmlinu?-`uname -r`.
Otherwise this builds initramfs for newer handbuild trees too.
* Resync with 0.40ubuntu24:
- New conf.d dir for config snippet.

* mkinitramfs-kpkg: Add kernel-package compat stuff, behaves like mkinitramfs,
but adds the sha1sum for update-initramfs. Reset takeover=0.

/etc/mkinitramfs/conf.d/root inside the initramfs.
* hook-functions: First shot at IEEE1394 support - add ohci1394 and sbp2.
initramfs-tools (0.52b) unstable; urgency=high
* update-initramfs: Set takeover=1. This allows hooks to regenerate the
latest initramfs per default. No need for an kpkg wrapper, as
kernel-package doesn't call update-initramfs, but mkinitramfs.

* This release brought to you by Fujitsu hard drives, which have forced
me to rewrite all my most recent initramfs-tools changes from memory.
* Include arcmsr module in the scsi module list (launchpad.net/40075)
* Abstract out the kernel minversion checking stuff into the function
library, so we can reuse it to check minversion requirements for hook
scripts as well (such as udev, which requires >= 2.6.15 in dapper)
* Bump the kernel minversion to 2.6.15 on hppa and ia64, since they used
initrd-tools with their 2.6.12 kernels in breezy, not initramfs-tools.
* If mkinitramfs fails due to minversion not being met, don't bail out
of update-initramfs, but just exit 0, so upgrades don't halt on it.
* Conditionalise the use of lvm and md in mkinitramfs so it's a no-op if
you don't have those packages installed, but allows for smooth upgrades
if you have older versions that don't ship their own hooks yet.
* Make prereqs conditional on the script/hook actually existing. From
now on, this means that 'PREREQ="udev"' means "run udev first, iff it
happens to be installed". Having the files exist on the filesystem if
you have a HARD dependency should be enforced with package dependencies.
* Add ohci1394 and sbp2 to the scsi module list (launchpad.net/37479)
* Move framebuffer setup from usplash to scripts/local-top/framebuffer
so that people booting with vga=1234 but no splash will still get a
framebuffer instead of a useless black console (launchpad.net/27669)
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu29) dapper; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu27) dapper; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu24) dapper; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu23) dapper; urgency=low
* Grow a conf.d directory for config snippets, and toss the RESUME option
in there, to stop editing our own conffile in our maintainer scripts.
* Add a cleverly hackish preinst that will pull the RESUME setting from
old config files, migrate it to conf.d/resume, and reset that part of the
conffile to a factory fresh state. This should fix the unwanted conffile
prompt in breezy->dapper upgrades for people who made no local changes.
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu22) dapper; urgency=low
* Add mptspi to the list of SCSI modules put in the initramfs by default,
which is required for some LSI Logic controllers and for the VMware SCSI
controller in recent VMware versions (See launchpad.net/{27187,31229})
* Fix typo of /dev/disk/by-*, which I wrote as /dev/disks/by-{uuid,label}
* Load i2c-keywest before loading therm_pm72 in the PowerPC thermal hook,
since the latter sometimes needs the former (Closes launchpad.net/27269)
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu21) dapper; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu19) dapper; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu17) dapper; urgency=low

* Change the nfs script to use "mount -o nolock" instead of "nfsmount",
to fix some timeouts for ltsp NFS roots (Closes launchpad.net/19196)
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu16) dapper; urgency=low
* Bump klibc-utils dependency to (>= 1.1.16-1), for hppa and ia64.
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu15) dapper; urgency=low
* Drop the udev dependency, so we always get configured before udev.
We can get away with this now that udev hooks/scripts have been split
into the udev package proper. This should close Malone bug #28808.
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu14) dapper; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu12) dapper; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu11) dapper; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu10) dapper; urgency=low
* Create the /dev/initramfs directory as soon as we mount /dev, so other
packages that need a playground in /dev can do so in a uniform location.
* Update the usplash progress bar every time we are asked to output a
success or failure value from an init action, and write our progress to
/dev/initramfs for sysv-init to gather up and pick up where we left off.
* Export $DPKG_ARCH in both mkinitramfs (for use by hooks) and initramfs.
* Use $DPKG_ARCH in the thermal hook/script to divide the x86 stuff from
the powerpc stuff, not because we have to, but as an example to others.
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu9) dapper; urgency=low
* Make some changes to cope with the new and improved klibc packaging:
- Add a force to the deletion of ${DESTDIR}/bin/sh, to avoid errors.
- Cope with libklibc moving from /usr/lib/klibc/lib to /lib.
- Bump dependency on klibc-utils to one new enough for the above.
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu8) dapper; urgency=low
* Call modprobe everywhere with "-Qb" to silence messages and allow user
blacklisting.
* Copy the entire /etc/modprobe.d directory to the initramfs, so we can
pick up all user blacklists and options.
* Remove the slumber for SCSI/USB devices from the local filesystem mount
script, udev's init-premount script will take care of this when
necessary.
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu7) dapper; urgency=low
* remove "sleep 3" from the nfs script before the nfsmount command,
its a leftover from debugging in breezy and slows down thin client
booting unnecessary
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu6) dapper; urgency=low
* When panicking, fork an interactive subshell rather than execing it, so
that if the user fixes things up and exits, we continue rather than
panic the kernel.
* Call update-initramfs in postinst to regenerate the latest initramfs on
upgrades
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu5) dapper; urgency=low
* Wait up to 10 seconds for the root device to appear before failing,
allowing SCSI and USB controllers time to settle. There's almost
certainly a more elegant way to do this generically for all mountroot
functions, but for now this will suffice.
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu4) dapper; urgency=low

initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu2) dapper; urgency=low
* Rename scripts/init-premount/acpid to scripts/init-premount/thermal
and add therm_pm72 to avoid "vaccum cleaner mode" on ppc64 systems.
initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu1) dapper; urgency=low
* Use tmpfs for /dev, instead of ramfs; as tmpfs is swappable.
* Move /proc and /sys to the real filesystem, rather than unmounting them;
slightly reduces workload.
* Replace /root with ${rootmnt} in final usage of /dev/console
* Copy across modprobe blacklist as well as aliases
* Change the panic/breaknow thing *again*. There's now a break= option
which can be any of top, modules, premount, mount, bottom, init and
causes the initramfs to break at that point. panic/breaknow is now
break=top, without an argument is equivalent to break=premount.
* Run depmod at the top of the init script, so init-top scripts can use
modprobe.
* Remove udev-specific code:
- depend on the version of udev that includes all of these things itself
- remove udevstart from init
- remove code to move /dev to the real filesystem from init
- remove /sys-based module loading from load_modules
- remove boot_events functions from load_modules
- remove udev copy from mkinitramfs
- remove udev hook script

(Closes: #339568, #339365, #338814)
* Pump udev dependency.
* init: Pump timeout as there is currently no way to check which udevd
processes are still running and why.
Cures hopefully breakage of missing devices on boot.
* Sync with latest Ubuntu.
initramfs-tools (0.36ubuntu6) dapper; urgency=low
