Package: firmware-bnx2 Version: 0.4+etchnhalf.1 Severity: important I installed the etchnhalf kernel, rebooted only to find out that I had not network, booted the old kernel again and installed firmware-bnx2:

Needless to say the system still didn't properly boot, only purging and reinstalling the linux-image-2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-amd64 did the trick. Maybe the firmware-bnx2 package should do "update-initramfs -u -k all" instead of just "update-initramfs -u". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
