This is a major update, fixing most of the important bugs in the Debian bug tracker. The major changes are: - Split initramfs-tools binary packages into core and automation hooks, to allow for coinstallation of the core with other initramfs builders - Fail at build-time if busybox is needed but not found - The old default BUSYBOX=y in initramfs.conf is changed to BUSYBOX=auto which preserves the old behaviour - Rewrite build-time block device sysfs lookup to be generic - Include modules for all components of a multi-disk device - Use blkid to resolve LABEL=, UUID=, PARTLABEL= and PARTUUID= block device IDs at boot time, and do this much later - Change file copying to distinguish executables from other file types and to preserve symlinks - Run panic scripts just before dropping to a shell - Always mounts /usr rather than checking whether init is systemd - This requires an update to initscripts which I uploaded earlier today Ben. And the git shortlog: Andy Whitcroft (2): Add 2>&1 to the run-init line. When adding i8042 also add psmouse as some keyboards are behind the mouse.
