The following would work, and should probably be put in the section that documents steps to be taken before starting the upgrade: Users using the LILO bootloader should note that the default settings for initramfs-tools now generate an initramfs that is too large for LILO to load. Such users should either switch to grub, or edit the file /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf, changing the line MODULES=most to read MODULES=dep Note, however, that doing this will cause initramfs-tools to install only those modules that are required for the particular hardware that it is run on, onto the initramfs; as such, if you want to generate a boot medium that will work on more hardware than just the one you're generating it on, you should leave the setting to MODULES=most and make sure you do not use LILO. -- <Lo-lan-do> Home is where you have to wash the dishes. -- #debian-devel, Freenode, 2004-09-22 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
