Cannot update. the warning is meaningless as update-initramfs will try the other images anyway. this is due to the existence of a sha1sum in /var/lib/initramfs-tools corresponding to 2.6.17-2-686 and has nothing to do with the .bak. postetch there will be the possibility to record a postremoval hook for it in kernel-package for now that's admin work. best regards -- maks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
