The /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-powerpc image isn't generated, because mkvmlinuz bails out with an error, when it is called through the hook-scripts in /etc/kernel/*. I think Apex and I had nailed down the error to the point, where mkvmlinuz queries the debconf database. But I wonder why such a query should fail.
Code in /etc/kernel/postinst.d/mkvmlinuz: > #!/bin/sh > > set -e > > . /usr/share/debconf/confmodule > > db_get mkvmlinuz/bootloaders <-- likely bails out here! > bootloader="$RET" > > if [ "$bootloader" = mkvmlinuz ]; then > /usr/sbin/mkvmlinuz $1 $2 > fi > > db_get mkvmlinuz/bootloaders > bootloader="$RET" Could it be that the type of partition table makes a difference? What are you using? MBR + yaboot or RDB + mkvmlinuz? Unfortunately I don't have a PegasosII...which complicates debugging a little bit. regards, Gerhard > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 23.
