This problem still exists, it's quite clearly NOT a serious level bug. Regarding the booting problems, it was caused by libc6 having a broken ldd (see bug #615806) which caused problems for mkinitramfs which then flowed on to borking the boot process. grub.cfg looks the same before all this sadness happened and its working so you can disregard the booting problem. I think I may of being specifying an old initrd which was working which is why my grub command line boots worked. sorry for the false alarm, i never even though of checking ldd worked. - Craig -- Craig Small VK2XLZ http://www.enc.com.au/ csmall at : enc.com.au Debian GNU/Linux http://www.debian.org/ csmall at : debian.org GPG fingerprint: 1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
