Hi,
I can't reproduce this.

1240: ($ret,$seen) = fset ("$question", 'seen', 'false');
1241: die "Error setting debconf flags in $question: $seen" if $ret;
1242:
1243: $ret = subst("$question", 'loader', "$loader");
1244: die "Error setting debconf substitutions in $question: $seen" if $ret;
1245:
1246: ($ret,$seen) = input('critical', "$question");
1247: if ($ret && $ret != 30 ) {
1248: die "Error setting debconf question $question: $seen";
1249: }
1250:
1251: ($ret,$seen) = go ();
1252: if ($ret && $ret != 30 ) {
1253: die "Error asking debconf question $question: $seen";
1254: }
1255:
1256: ($ret,$answer) = get("$question");
1257: die "Error retreiving answer for $question: $answer" if $ret;
1258:
1259: if ($answer =~ /^(y|t)/i) {
1260: print STDERR "Ok, not running $loader\n";
1261: return 0;
1262: }
1263: else {
1264: print STDERR "Ok, continuing as directed.\n";
1265: }
So, nothing wrong there, as far as I can see.

This was done just minutes ago.
Now, can you run script, and inside script, rune make-kpkg
clean, make-kpkg .... kernel-image, dpkg -i linux-image-*.deb, and
send the full log to me? I suspect that you have an old ./debian dir
in there somewhere.
