When the linux-image package is installed, it creates symlinks from the root directory:
# ls -l /
initrd.img -> /boot/initrd.img-3.11.0-13-generic
vmlinuz -> boot/vmlinuz-3.11.0-13-generic
This is needed for booting the currently installed kernel (managed from within the distro for security updates etc) in certain environments, such as virtual hosts or root-NFS booting.
The bug is that the initrd.img symlink is absolute, since the test_relative() perl function checks for the presence of the initrd.img file, which is created after the postinst scripts runs, so it assumes a absolute symlink is needed. This isn't the case for the vmlinuz file, since it is shipped. |
