Fixes #36847 - Rename initrd for Debian #9870

obol89 · 2023-10-20T09:45:02Z

initrd in official Debian repositories has .gz extension, not .img as it is in the template currently.

ok to test

I've verified the URLs provided in https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/36847 so I think this is correct.

Test failures are relevant: the snapshots need to be updated.

sbernhard · 2023-12-05T13:39:02Z

Can you please update the snapshots @obol89

It should only be about these 2 files. Should be easys to update them manually on disk without recording the snapshots completely:

I just updated the files. I'm not sure if I did it correctly from the merge request / github perspective, but please let me know if there is anything else to do.

sbernhard · 2023-12-28T08:24:16Z

Ready to merge @ekohl ?

ekohl

Checking versions:

So all supported Debian versions have this.

It's also weird we have a line initrd below it which is correct. Looks like the specific line was introduced in 91de027. That came from theforeman/community-templates@8deda37. In theforeman/community-templates#496 it is explicitly discussed, but I suppose nobody verified it for Debian.

We should really update our tests to have something newer than Wheezy, but that's outside the scope of this PR so I opened #9972.

Why doesn't this use the initrd variable that's defined on line 37? Shouldn't it be:

Suggested change

kernel <%= kernel %> initrd=initrd.gz interface=auto url=<%= url %> ramdisk_size=10800 root=/dev/rd/0 rw auto <%= snippet("preseed_kernel_options", variables: {ipxe_net: true}).strip %>

I'd expect it to then correctly use this code:

foreman/app/models/operatingsystems/debian.rb

Line 2 in a1142ab

PXEFILES = {:kernel => "linux", :initrd => "initrd.gz"}

Confusingly enough, this combination is never valid. For Focal you only have legacy-images and that directory only has boot.img.gz, not initrd.*.
