ah. _drat_. that's exactly what i did, and it overwrote... > There's no initrd img for 2.6.39, there's the kernel image itself however. oh wait... let me get this straight: there's *no* 2.6.39 initrd?? so, let us be clear: you installed 2.6.39-bp0.2-amd64 and yet there is no file /boot/initrd-2.6.39-bp0.2-amd64 to match?? btw also - you mentioned "2.6.38" - i assume (given the listings you've shown below) - i assume that you meant "2.6.39", is that correct? > root@NAS2:/boot# ls -l > total 19460 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 106088 Mar 8 01:18 config-2.6.32-5-amd64 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 124738 Jul 26 14:02 config-2.6.39-bpo.2-amd64 > drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Aug 22 00:32 grub > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10977315 Mar 24 08:24 initrd.img-2.6.32-5-amd64 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1662514 Mar 8 01:18 System.map-2.6.32-5-amd64 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1887188 Jul 26 14:02 System.map-2.6.39-bpo.2-amd64 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2418720 Mar 8 01:12 vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-amd64 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2691792 Jul 26 13:59 vmlinuz-2.6.39-bpo.2-amd64 > > I don't understand how the initrd.img-2.6.32-5-amd64 might help, but I can > upload it somewhere. just tell me where. > > I might be able to reproduce the problem by installing the 2.6.39bpo again, > but first I have to find out how to do that, well, that's exactly what i did, and, by doing so, i found that it was then *NOT* possible to reproduce the problem. so please do not do anything right now! :) unless you have a completely unusable system of course so it would appear that the problem is that initramfs-tools is *NOT* generating the initrd file! l. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
