Hi,

We build ISO with simple-cdd but all iso created are failed since
6.1.0-30 was included inside repositories.

The cause is the current kernel initrd.gz still include kernel 6.1.0-29
as the repository provides the 6.1.0-30 and build the ISO according to
this new kernel.
This fails the installation process because no module for 6.1.0-29 was
found.

Is it possible to publish on repo a new initrd.gz which include the new
6.1.0-30  kernel ?


regards

It looks to me the tooling is broken because the 6.1.0-29 ABI is very
much still available in stable:

linux-image-6.1.0-29-amd64 | 6.1.123-1 | stable | amd64
kernel-image-6.1.0-29-amd64-di | 6.1.123-1 | stable | amd64

(The former is the regular kernel, the latter the package used for the
installer, and you can check modules are also available, e.g.
acpi-modules-6.1.0-29-amd64-di.)

The installer will be updated before the next point release, as usual.

Looping the list back in.
Thanks for your reply, but the problem is not the presence of kernel
6.1.0-29 but of 6.1.0-30.
The tool considers that 6.1.0-30 should be used to build the ISO image.
My very first words were:

It looks to me the tooling is broken [

and since debian-cd@ doesn't maintain simple-cdd, you really should be
checking the package's BTS page and filing a bug report there if there's
none already?
