Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-k7 Severity: wishlist Upon purge, the user sees # apt-get remove --purge kernel-image-2.6.8-2-k7 The following packages will be REMOVED: kernel-image-2.6-k7* kernel-image-2.6.8-2-k7* The link /vmlinuz is a dangling link Removing symbolic link /vmlinuz... # ls -og / drwxr-xr-x 2 1024 2005-08-08 00:58 boot drwxr-xr-x 2 1024 2002-05-29 04:24 initrd lrwxrwxrwx 1 27 2005-08-04 01:41 initrd.img.old -> boot/initrd.img-2.6.11-1-k7 lrwxrwxrwx 1 24 2005-08-04 01:41 vmlinuz.old -> boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11-1-k7 etc.
# ls /boot/|grep k7 initrd.img-2.6.11-1-k7 initrd.img-2.6.12-1-k7 vmlinuz-2.6.11-1-k7 vmlinuz-2.6.12-1-k7... So we see that after installing 11 and 12, then removing 8, one is left with apparently tattered irrelevant symlinks in /. (I'm not sure why there is an old empty initrd directory sitting in / either.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
