Description Pete Zaitcev 2007-12-22 08:47:54 UTC

Description of problem:

After building a kernel, it cannot be installed. The mkinitrd fails with
/sbin/mkinitrd: line 541: syntax error near unexpected token `done'
/sbin/mkinitrd: line 541: `    done'

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

mkinitrd-6.0.22-1.fc9

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. build a kernel
2. make modules_install
3. copy vmlinuz  (this may be optional)
4. run mkinitrd as usual:
mkinitrd /boot/initrd-foo.img foo
  
Actual results:

[root@simbelmyne linux-2.6.24-rc6-ub]# mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.24-rc6-ub.img
2.6.24-rc6-ub
/sbin/mkinitrd: line 541: syntax error near unexpected token `done'
/sbin/mkinitrd: line 541: `    done'
[root@simbelmyne linux-2.6.24-rc6-ub]# 

Expected results:

Additional info:

rpm -V mkinitrd passes ok

Comment 1 Pete Zaitcev 2007-12-22 08:50:38 UTC

I replaced "if" with "elif" a few lines up in "elif [[ "$device" =~ ^dm- ]];
 then" and it seems to fix the issue.
