initramfs on F21 beta image is corrupt?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I just grabbed the F21 beta cloud image from:

  http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/21-Beta/Cloud/Images/x86_64/Fedora-Cloud-Base-20141029-21_Beta.x86_64.qcow2

It looks like the initramfs on this image is corrupt; it appears to be
an uncompressed CPIO archive with truncated content:

  # zcat initramfs-3.17.1-302.fc21.x86_64.img | cpio -it
  gzip: initramfs-3.17.1-302.fc21.x86_64.img: not in gzip format
  cpio: premature end of archive

  # cpio -it < initramfs-3.17.1-302.fc21.x86_64.img 
  .
  kernel
  kernel/x86
  kernel/x86/microcode
  kernel/x86/microcode/AuthenticAMD.bin
  early_cpio
  44 blocks

If I generate a new image with 'dracut -f', I get something that looks
a lot more sane...

  # dracut -f
  # zcat initramfs-3.17.1-302.fc21.x86_64.img | cpio -it
  [...671 lines of output...]

The image still boots correctly in my OpenStack environment but I
suspect this will cause problems for someone.
