  • Re: [OT] initramfstools 0.144 safe to use? likely yes, without reiserfs

    To me it appears it may not be able to generate the initrd not only with reiserfsck but maybe also depending on some other tools that may need
    to be installed. dmraid is mentioned in a comment to the bug. Maybe it
    only affects these two, which I do not have installed.
    /usr/sbin/fsck.ext4 is sym-linked to /usr/sbin/e2fsck but this is
    already the binary, so I bet that would not count as too many levels.

    I saw a comment by someone who just removed reiserfsck and it worked then.
    So I bet if you do not use reiserfsck and dmraid and remove them in case
    they are there, upgrading should be safe.
