initrd-tools relied on an /proc/scsi ouput that is gone since 2.6.12. it is phased out in favour of new initramfs generators. > How can I fix it? use initramfs-tools - generates newstyle initramfs images. invocation of mkinitramfs is similar to mkinitrd, even if the usage of update-initramfs is preferred. yaird is the second alternative. regards -- maks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
