Summary: mkinitrd -b boot_dir doesn't work Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Bootloader AssignedTo: jsrain@novell.com ReportedBy: lukas@aiken.cz QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: ---
User-Agent: Opera/9.64 (Windows NT 6.0; U; cs) Presto/2.1.1
mkinitrd ignores the boot directory passed via -b boot_dir. It always uses /boot instead.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a directory (eg. /home/abcd/boot). 2. Copy the content of /boot into this directory (eg. cp -r /boot /home/abcd/boot). 3. Invoke mkinitrd with the "-b" parameter (eg. mkinitrd -b /home/abcd/boot) Actual Results: The appropriate initrd file is created inside /boot, not in the specified directory (eg. /home/abcd/boot). The same applies for the kernel image which is used from /boot.
Expected Results: The image is created inside the specified directory (eg. /home/abcd/boot).
