Subject: [gentoo-amd64] genkernel changes
Date: Fri, 19 Dec 2008 07:50:34 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7a329d910812190750n606b52efl5c3a8cb3cb0560ad@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I build my own kernels but since my / partition is lvm I use genkernel
to create an initrd.  Previously 'genkernel --lvm initrd' did what I
wanted but it seems that the since genkernel-3.4.10.902 thats no
longer the case.  Reading the man page it seems that the initrd
parameter has been replaced by initramfs.  However, when I attempt to
run it with that I get

matter boot # genkernel --lvm initramfs
Error: Unknown option 'initramfs'!

I can easily roll back to a previous version of genkernel, I'm just
wondering if genkernel is broken or I'm just doing something wrong?
