Dear all
Happy new year!
A series of events (recent apt-get upgrade & power failure), has brought
one of my servers (software RAID-1 with SiI3112 SATA controller)
to the following state:

I can't apt-get upgrade anymore (although I see there is a new kernel package
out there), since grep is heavily used in the dpkg scripts:
