Hi Martin, I sincerely apologize for setting the wrong severity to the wrong package in the original report. (I thought the system could be in a state where it would not reboot at all)
I am sorry to inform you that changing to MODULES=dep in initramfs.conf did not help. (driver-policy already had MODULES=dep). And no, I am not using LVM or RAID (just a standard ext2-partitions for /, /boot, /home/ and one for swap on a single SATA drive). The good thing is that the system reboots properly and seems to work fine with the old 3.16 kernel. There is no /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/compress I will try it out and get back. Thank you very much! On 12 February 2018 at 21:57, Martin Michlmayr <t...@cyrius.com> wrote: > Unfortunately my memory is quite bad.
