After latest Tumbleweed update (20160519) the initrd generation is somehow broken on my computer. The Kernel 4.5.4-1-default still boots (only to text mode, but graphics mode can be selected manually). But the initrd file is mysterious: 1) It is not compressed: file /boot/initrd-`uname -r` /boot/initrd-4.5.4-1-default: ASCII cpio archive (SVR4 with no CRC) 2) It contains only two files and some directories: # cpio --extract --make-directories --verbose < /boot/initrd-`uname -r` . early_cpio kernel kernel/x86 kernel/x86/microcode kernel/x86/microcode/GenuineIntel.bin 16 blocks 3) It is bigger than the content: # du -h 12K ./kernel/x86/microcode 16K ./kernel/x86 20K ./kernel 28K . # ls -lh /boot/initrd-`uname -r` -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7.2M May 21 13:20 /boot/initrd-4.5.4-1-default The dracut log file /var/log/YaST2/mkinitrd.log looks OK on the first view: I: Executing: /usr/bin/dracut --logfile /var/log/YaST2/mkinitrd.log --force /boot/initrd-4.5.4-1-default 4.5.4-1-default I: *** Including module: bash *** I: *** Including module: systemd *** I: *** Including module: warpclock *** I: *** Including module: systemd-initrd *** I: *** Including module: i18n *** I: *** Including module: kernel-modules *** I: *** Including module: resume *** I: *** Including module: rootfs-block *** I: *** Including module: terminfo *** I: *** Including module: udev-rules *** I: Skipping udev rule: 40-redhat.rules I: Skipping udev rule: 50-firmware.rules I: Skipping udev rule: 50-udev.rules I: Skipping udev rule: 91-permissions.rules I: Skipping udev rule: 80-drivers-modprobe.rules I: *** Including module: dracut-systemd *** I: *** Including module: haveged *** I: *** Including module: usrmount *** I: *** Including module: base *** I: *** Including module: fs-lib *** I: *** Including module: shutdown *** I: *** Including module: suse *** I: *** Including modules done *** I: *** Installing kernel module dependencies and firmware *** I: *** Installing kernel module dependencies and firmware done *** I: *** Resolving executable dependencies *** I: *** Resolving executable dependencies done*** I: *** Hardlinking files *** I: *** Hardlinking files done *** I: *** Stripping files *** I: *** Stripping files done *** I: *** Generating early-microcode cpio image *** I: *** Constructing GenuineIntel.bin **** I: *** Store current command line parameters *** I: Stored kernel commandline: I: resume=UUID=93313bb7-d7cd-4978-9882-079d4a803b72 resume=UUID=7c287338-bb71-41e1-a5cf-789f6fea25d3 I: root=UUID=2d968229-cc2f-4813-b299-2b989a76006a rootfstype=ext4 rootflags=rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered I: *** Creating image file '/boot/initrd-4.5.4-1-default' *** I: *** Creating initramfs image file '/boot/initrd-4.5.4-1-default' done *** What is going on here? How can I recover a valid initrd file (it's not in my backups)?
