So why does the kernel depend on a broken tool? (only half-joking...) apt-get install initramfs-tools OK, after this, the kernel can be configured. and post the output of cat /etc/kernel-img.conf snip link_in_boot = Yes do_initrd = Yes snap /boot looks fine to me.

The root issue here is that module-init-tools version in squeeze has stopped generating the .map files by default. From the upstream changelog: 3.6 Version: o depmod: make building map files optional (does anyone use them anyway?) So either yaird needs to be updated to no longer require the modules.pcimap file, or make sure the map files still get generated either by calling depmod -m itself, or working with the kernel team to have the image postinst modified to include -m. Note that 2.6.26 kernels are only being updated for use in lenny. The reason this update appeared in squeeze is because a newer release has not yet migrated from sid into squeeze, but we need squeeze versions of package to be greater than or equal to the versions in lenny. Changing maintainer scripts in the lenny packages will unlikely be done unless its shown to break upgrades to lenny. As a workaround, you might consider trying initramfs-tools instead of yaird, or manually running: # depmod -a -m -F /boot/System.map-2.6.26-2-686 2.6.26-2-686 # dpkg --configure -a Thanks for the detailed info, Dann! - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAknjRNcACgkQn7DbMsAkQLhVIwCfdj1lgXvpIYiqgXnCvxtHNsrj 7KMAmgLUNl2wuVuJvzhWFiEsF66MqnA/ =ZH1+ -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
