<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Balcaen John at 21/10/11 10:44 did gyre and gimble:
&gt;<i> Le vendredi 21 octobre 2011 00:29:46 Colin Guthrie a &#233;crit :
</I>
&gt;&gt;<i> Then just reboot. Hopefully all will go well and you won't notice much
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> difference :)
</I>
&gt;<i> Indeed it did reboot without too much problem here with lvm for / &amp; /home.
</I>&gt;<i> However i noticed that the initrd is bigger than the old mkinitrd :
</I>&gt;<i> -rw-r--r--  1 root root 7,8M oct.  20 22:40 initrd-3.1.0-
</I>&gt;<i> desktop-0.rc10.1.mga2.img
</I>&gt;<i> -rw-------  1 root root 5,4M oct.  18 09:50 initrd-3.1.0-
</I>&gt;<i> desktop-0.rc10.1.mga2.img-old
</I>
Yeah, it includes more stuff (including udev itself) so it will
ultimately create larger initrd's... Not sure there is anything we can
do about that :s

&gt;<i> During the creation of the initrd there's several warnings  about moving 
</I>&gt;<i> several files to /etc/modprobe.d/ (such as the 
</I>&gt;<i> /etc/modprobe.conf), i noticed especially this one 
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> &#171; perl: &quot;include /lib/module-init-tools/modprobe.compat&quot; is deprecated, please 
</I>&gt;<i> use /etc/modprobe.d 
</I>&gt;<i> &#187;
</I>&gt;<i> It seems this file was created to ensure transition between the 2.4 &amp; 2.6 
</I>&gt;<i> kernel release, maybe we can safely drop it now ?
</I>
Yeah this is from an update to module-init-tools a while back. It
actually happens with mkinitrd too.
