681	mindi kernel fs detection is wrong	victor gattegno	Bruno Cornec	"kernel fs detection by mindi (grep -q gzip, then strings etc.) is wrong, the tests are made on vmlinuz, but it works only with initrd.

In /usr/sbin/mindi :

{{{
file $fname | grep -q gzip
}}}

I attached tests on RHEL 4 and SLES 11 SP1.

Also the tests are based on Linux kernel 2.*, but in newer GNU/LInux distribs are used Linux kernel 3.* (exemple Ubuntu 12.04, etc.)

Then at boot can occur :
kernel panic : VFS : Unable to mount root fs
