won't comment any further on your personal opinons. fact is that yaird never was default for any linux-2.6 testing image and aboves line was completly false due to the usage of mkinitramfs instead of update-initramfs (maybe mkinitramfs-kpkg for lenny). anyway this story is closed and i will refrain to repeat myself or post any followup even if your allegations get even stranger. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
