<PRE>Hi,
While debugging <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6692#c8">https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6692#c8</A> I
realised that the initrd is generated when the kernel is installed, but
it's not regenerated again later.
I'm not sure why this isn't working but perhaps someone more familiar
with the installer itself (TV?) could comment?
I was under the impression the initrd would be regenerated at the end?
Does this even happen or have I just assumed this? I'm pretty sure in
the past it did used to regenerate it but I could be mistaken.
So the question then remains, how do we ensure that either:
a) the initrd is regenerated at the end of the install process
b) we delay the kernel install until the end such that all other
packages are guarenteed to be installed and available.
Cheers
Col
