I'd like to see any quik-installer messages in /var/log/syslog (tty4, but they may have scrolled off), if I could, please. > So I suspect that quik partially installed but in the absence of an > initrd image, couldn't complete. I guess that this is addressed in > Bug#260333 filed against initrd-tools? I doubt it. quik-installer should be able to deal with a non-initrd kernel quite happily. The problem here is that something is causing quik-installer to exit without saying why, and I'd like to know what. Also, I suspect you were looking for the kernel and initrd in /boot rather than /target/boot.
