Package: linux-image-armmp Version: 3.16.0-4 Severity: normal When first removing the current kernel and then installing a new kernel a symbolic link /boot/vmlinux is created.
sudo apt-get remove linux-image-3.16.0-4-armmp sudo apt-get install linux-image-armmp-lpae When first installing an additional kernel and then removing the current kernel the symbolic link /boot/vmlinux is removed instead of replacing it. sudo apt-get install linux-image-armmp-lpae sudo apt-get remove linux-image-3.16.0-4-armmp My expectation is that irrespective of the sequence of operations the symbolic link /boot/vmlinux should be created for the current kernel. Same for /boot/initrd.img. The problem occurs in linux-image-3.16.0-4-armmp.postrm Best regards Heinrich Schuchardt 0 aktualisiert, 0 neu installiert, 2 zu entfernen und 0 nicht aktualisiert.
