I wonder whether you have installed packages from more than one release, for example, some packages from Sarge (aka stable) and others from Etch (aka testing). If you have done that, you might have to compile your own initrd-tools from deb-src. I have a Sarge system but I had to install a few packages not found in Sarge, so I used source packages from Etch and compiled on the machine that runs Sarge, avoiding breaking my Sarge system with binaries from Etch. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
