</I>>>><i> Hi,
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> With a memory of the infamous "initrd killer" problem that is still
</I>>>><i> lurking in the background somewhere, something related to theme updates
</I>>>><i> is messing things up:
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> e.g. see the before and after listings for my /boot
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">colin at jimmy</A> code (master)]$ ll /boot
</I>>>><i> total 39784
</I>>><i> [...]
</I>>>><i> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Apr 3 09:22 initrd.img ->
</I>>>><i> initrd-3.3.1-desktop-1.mga2.img
</I>>><i> [...]
</I>>><i>
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> After:
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">colin at jimmy</A> code (master)]$ ll /boot
</I>>><i> [...]
</I>>>><i> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7556648 Apr 3 14:33 initrd.img
</I>>><i> [...]
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Reproduced:
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> root 9723 0.0 0.0 25760 1372 pts/11 S+ 03:02 0:00 |
</I>>><i> \_ /bin/sh /usr/share/bootsplash/scripts/switch-themes
</I>>><i> Mageia-Default
</I>>><i> root 9745 0.2 0.2 93496 20724 pts/11 S+ 03:02 0:00 |
</I>>><i> \_ /usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/bootloader-config --action
</I>>><i> update-splash
</I>>><i> root 30133 0.0 0.0 25760 1312 pts/11 S+ 03:06 0:00 |
</I>>><i> \_ /bin/sh
</I>>><i> /usr/share/bootsplash/scripts/make-boot-splash /boot/initrd.img 800
</I>>><i> root 30143 0.0 0.0 25760 1340 pts/11 S+ 03:06 0:00 |
</I>>><i> \_ /bin/sh
</I>>><i> /usr/share/bootsplash/scripts/make-boot-splash-raw /boot/initrd.img
</I>>><i> Mageia-Default
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> => bork
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> So it seems like some recent change in DrakX which causes it to call
</I>>><i> make-boot-splash even for /boot/initrd.img...
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Actually... it would be my recentish change/fix in
</I>><i> /usr/share/bootsplash/scripts/make-boot-splash-raw in which $foo.img is
</I>><i> now replaced with
</I>><i> # gzip > $foo.img.tmp
</I>><i> # mv -f $foo.img.tmp $foo.img
</I>><i> while it previously was a direct
</I>><i> # gzip > $foo.img
</I>><i>
</I>><i> I've now added a "readlink -f" in the beginning of the script so that it
</I>><i> will operate on the symlink target directly, in bootsplash-3.3.8. Thanks
</I>><i> for noticing this.
</I>
No worries.
As a followup question, do you think it'll end up regenerating some
initrd's several times?
e.g. I have two symlinks, initrd.img and initrd-desktop.img both
pointing to the same initrd.
Will this ultimately get regenerated three times, two of which are
obviously redundant?
