It is a generic question and isn't specific to Debian on laptops. There isn't anything laptop specific about it and therefore would apply to Debian in general instead of specifically to laptops. Therefore the better place to ask this question is debian-user instead of debian-laptop. > I've a Pavillon tx1420us with Debian Lenny and trying to upgrade to a new > kernel. Ah... But not just any kernel. This is a custom kernel. And unfortunately the postinst script with it doesn't say anything about what is the problem. Let me run through it quickly. > I'had no problem till installing de *.deb package (sorry lhe language is > Portugues...): > > hp:/usr/src# dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.27_custom.1.0_amd64.deb > Selecionando pacote previamente não selecionado linux-image-2.6.27. > (Lendo banco de dados ... 102681 arquivos e diretórios atualmente > instalados). > Desempacotando linux-image-2.6.27 (de > linux-image-2.6.27_custom.1.0_amd64.deb) ... > Done.

This is the error. This is what is causing your problem. You need to know why update-grub exited with an error. Unfortunately it did not say what the problem is about. You can run update-grub manually and determine the problem. # update-grub You should see some output similar to this output: Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub Searching for default file ... found: /boot/grub/default Testing for an existing GRUB menu.lst file ... found: /boot/grub/menu.lst Searching for splash image ... none found, skipping ... Found kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-686 Found kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.18-6-686 Updating /boot/grub/menu.lst ... done Apparently you are not. Apparently yours is throwing an error. But the kernel you are installing is a custom kernel. That is okay in general but something may be incorrect about how it is constructed. Something incorrect with this particular custom kernel might be the root of the problem. > dpkg: erro processando linux-image-2.6.27 (--install): > sub-processo post-installation script retornou estado de saída de erro 1 The sub-process had an error and exited with exit code 1.
