What exactly is the problem about initramfs: # apt-cache show initramfs-tools Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.109.1 When you are going to install backport packages (bpo), you must explicitly indicate apt-get to do so, using the -t option to target backport repositories. The problem is that the release version of initramfs-tools is lower than the needed one in backports and it won't be installed if target is not set. If using Wheezy, you must use apt-get this way: apt-get -t=wheezy-backports install linux-image-3.14.0.bpo.1-amd64 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
