Hi

First of all i have to say thanks to all that sent me solutions how to solve
my issues it has been very helpful for me being a Debian novice and all.

I have run into an interesting issue that i wonder if someone could explain
how I can avoided it in the future.

When i did my initial Debian installation i got tons of unresolved
dependencies after the install so i decided to try to let aptitude correct
them and went with the suggested solution it provided.

However i noticed mid upgrade it downloaded and installed amongst other
things

linux-image-2.6.18-3-iop32x

Which didn't seem right to me but being new and all i restarted the box and
sure enough the NSLU2 hang right after redboot sequence  with all lights
turned one.

So grabbing for a last straws used the Ugutil and flashed the box with

linux-image-2.6.18-3-ixp4xx

image and thankfully the box started up correctly after that

So my question are how can i avoid these things to happened in the future is
there some setting that can ensure that aptitude doesn't downloads
non-compatible kernel images

Regards

Mikael
