I somehow misinterpreted the error message. Here's the output: So the problem is not at all dpkg related... it's just linux-image-2.6.29-2-amd64 that can't be configured because update-initramfs fails for some unknown reason. Reassigning it to update-initramfs. Do you have enough space in /boot ?

Do you have libmtp8 installed ? What gives the following commands ? ls -al /etc/udev/ /etc/udev/rules.d/ dpkg -s libmtp8 libmtp7 In any case, update-initramfs could be more resistant to a what is probably a dangling symlink... > update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.29-2-amd64 > update-initramfs failed to create initrd image. > Failed to create initrd image. > dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.29-2-amd64 (--configure): > subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog Contribuez à Debian et gagnez un cahier de l'admin Debian Lenny : http://www.ouaza.com/wp/2009/03/02/contribuer-a-debian-gagner-un-livre/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
