[Bug 236021] Re: There is no vfat module in the 2.6.24-17 initrd

[Agostino Russo]

One way to address this is to add vfat to initramfs-tools/hook-functions

Another way is to add a hook (/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/vfat) via lupin-support that makes sure that vfat gets into the initrd.

=======/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/vfat===========
#! /bin/sh -e

PREREQ=""

prereqs () {
    echo "$PREREQ"
}

case $1 in
prereqs)
    prereqs
    exit 0
    ;;
esac

. /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions

manual_add_modules vfat

exit 0
