So few minutes ago I upgraded some packages, includeing initrd-tools. I was asked if I want to overwrite /etc/mkinitrd/mkinitrd.conf, and I answered yes, since I didn't modify at all this file. Note that I didn't install a new kernel
After that I rebooted, and when I isuued route the program freezes before printing the default gw line, and I wasn't able to connect to the Internet. After that I reinstalled the kernel and everything now works ok. I just posted this in case someone had the same problem, or if it can be of interest for some developper.
