Dear initramfs-tools Maintainers,
while investigating Grml Live build (*) failures, I came across these
error messages:
Setting up linux-image-6.12.17-arm64 (6.12.17-1) ...
I: /vmlinuz.old is now a symlink to boot/vmlinuz-6.12.17-arm64
I: /initrd.img.old is now a symlink to boot/initrd.img-6.12.17-arm64
I: /vmlinuz is now a symlink to boot/vmlinuz-6.12.17-arm64
I: /initrd.img is now a symlink to boot/initrd.img-6.12.17-arm64 /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools:

grep: /proc/cpuinfo: No such file or directory
Especially the lines marked "mkinitramfs: 122" seem to make no
sense, as /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs line 122 does not seem to deal with /sys/module/firmware_class/parameters/path at all.
It would be nice if this could be improved.
This error message and line number comes from the shell. The issue here
is that the error comes from a file that was sourced. So the line number
122 refers to the sourced file. Searching the source code points to /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions.
The cryptroot:615 comes from get_mnt_devno() from
/lib/cryptsetup/functions.
So this bug should probably re-assigned to dash/bash/etc.
