Oh ok I always thought the (initial) initrd is included in the deb package, but I see it's not. > Well, that piece of code is provided by the user.

There are two files: 335214 4 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 220 Feb 17 06:42 /etc/kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools 335224 4 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 264 Feb 17 06:42 /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools The postinst one contains #!/bin/sh # passing the kernel version is required [ -z "$1" ] && exit 0 # kernel-package passes an extra arg; hack to not run under kernel-package [ -z "$2" ] || exit 0 # we're good - create initramfs. update runs do_bootloader update-initramfs -c -t -k "$1" No idea whether that is 100% correct. Is is the current initramfs-tools in unstable. Interestingly, the update-grub (or so) must have worked, because after installation of the kernel image, the new kernel appeared in menu.lst (albeit without initrd). thanks Alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
