[Bug 626749] [NEW] Generation of initramfs fails on OMAP4 when no 'Kernel' mtd partition exists, preventing configure/install.

[Vincent Stehlé]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

On OMAP4 (armel, v7a) board with no mtd partitions, initramfs-tools
complain with " Cannot find mtd partition 'Kernel' ", which prevents
further configure/install, leaving the package half-configured.

Complete aptitude installation log:

Setting up initramfs-tools (0.98ubuntu2) ...

Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.34-ti902-omap4
Cannot find mtd partition 'Kernel'
dpkg: error processing initramfs-tools (--configure):
