[SOLVED] mkinitcpio Armtix goes into endless loop

Armtix has named the kernel Image I believe instead of the usual vmlinuz. 
Is there a reason for that, because I can't install btrfs-progs because of it.

It goes into an endless mkinitcpio loop of not finding the vmlinuz file. 

Code: [Select]
...
/usr/bin/od: '/boot/vmlinuz-*': No such file or directory
/usr/bin/od: '/boot/vmlinuz-*': No such file or directory
/usr/lib/initcpio/functions: line 268: /boot/vmlinuz-*: No such file or directory
==> WARNING: Could not find kernel image for version 6.8.7-1-ARTIX
...

ALARM uses Image as kernel name, ARMtix adds some kernel info to it (like ltsImage). I don't know why did they choose this name.
Do you have some hook which explicitly searches for vmlinuz files? I don't have any and mkinitcpio works fine

Not that I know of.

[edit]

I figured it out. It's building 4 images very very slowly.

Are you sure it's endless loop then? It may just be one hook running twice (iirc one from pacman and other from kernel package)
