I manually built an initramfs with: # mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.13-1-686 2.6.13-1-686 && lilo and rebooted. The system successfully booted with the exception that udev did not setup the nvidia /dev entries, and X would not start. This was successfully worked around using the solution presented in http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2005/09/msg00827.html > And if you have the time, do the same check with an initrd > built using yaird? The double-zero version number and package comment "At the moment, yaird is lightly tested" are not confidence-inspiring. Nonetheless the yaird-built pre-init image worked as well, and was smaller than the initramfs image (1.6 MB vs 5.4 MB). > 2.6.13 has no devfs anymore, which breaks initrd in some cases, like > yours.
