Package: linux-image-2.6.20.3 Version: 3 Severity: normal If initramfs-tools are installed, the kernel fails to install with this message:
Setting up linux-image-2.6.20-1-k7 (2.6.20-3) ... Running depmod. Finding valid ramdisk creators. Failed to find suitable ramdisk generation tool for kernel version 2.6.20-1-k7 on running kernel 2.6.18 in /usr/sbin/mkinitrd.yaird dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.20-1-k7 (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 9 Interesting is, that it looked for yaird, but I purged yaird recently in favor for initramfs-tools. According the dependencies, initramfs-tools should be an alternaive to yaird and sufficient. dpkg -l intiramfs-tools yaird +++-===============-==============-============================================ ii initramfs-tools 0.87b tools for generating an initramfs pn yaird <none> (no description available) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18 Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.20.3 depends on: ii coreutils 5.97-5.3 The GNU core utilities ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.13 Debian configuration management sy linux-image-2.6.20.3 recommends no packages. -- debconf information: linux-image-2.6.20.3/preinst/overwriting-modules-2.6.20.3: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/postinst/old-dir-initrd-link-2.6.20.3: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/postinst/depmod-error-initrd-2.6.20.3: false linux-image-2.6.20.3/postinst/create-kimage-link-2.6.20.3: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/preinst/abort-install-2.6.20.3: linux-image-2.6.20.3/preinst/elilo-initrd-2.6.20.3: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/preinst/lilo-initrd-2.6.20.3: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/preinst/failed-to-move-modules-2.6.20.3: linux-image-2.6.20.3/postinst/old-initrd-link-2.6.20.3: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/postinst/old-system-map-link-2.6.20.3: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/preinst/already-running-this-2.6.20.3: shared/kernel-image/really-run-bootloader: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/postinst/depmod-error-2.6.20.3: false linux-image-2.6.20.3/preinst/initrd-2.6.20.3: linux-image-2.6.20.3/postinst/kimage-is-a-directory: linux-image-2.6.20.3/prerm/removing-running-kernel-2.6.20.3: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/preinst/bootloader-initrd-2.6.20.3: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/prerm/would-invalidate-boot-loader-2.6.20.3: true linux-image-2.6.20.3/postinst/bootloader-test-error-2.6.20.3: linux-image-2.6.20.3/preinst/lilo-has-ramdisk: linux-image-2.6.20.3/postinst/bootloader-error-2.6.20.3: linux-image-2.6.20.3/preinst/abort-overwrite-2.6.20.3: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
