I just upgraded from 6.10 to 7.04 beta through internet. I had some error's
with this packages: initramfs-tools, console-setup, ubuntu-minimal, usplash,
kubuntu-artwork-usplash, kubuntu-desktop, linux-image-2.6.20-14-generic,
linux-image-generic, linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-14-generic,
linux-restricted-modules-generic, linux-generic, linux-image-2.6.20-13-386
linux-image-2.6.20-14-386, linux-image-386,
linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-13-386, nvidia-glx, usplash-theme-ubuntu,
ubuntu-desktop
After I upgraded I tried to reboot. With my 2.6.17 kernel I wasn't able to boot
(kernel-panic root something problem).
Then I tried to boot my older kernel 2.6.15-23 and I was able to boot (but
because of problems with nvidia, as you see in my packages list, I was not able
to boot to into X until I have changed my xorg.conf).
Then I tried to apt-get upgrade rest of the packages, and I was getting errors
with initramfs-tools:
Setting up initramfs-tools (0.85g) ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-10-386
W: mdadm: unchecked configuration file: /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf
W: mdadm: please read /usr/share/doc/mdadm/README.upgrading-2.5.3.gz .
W: mdadm: no arrays defined in configuration file.
W: mdadm: falling back to emergency procedure in initramfs.
ERROR lilo fails for new /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-10-386:
Warning: '/proc/partitions' does not match '/dev' directory structure.
Name change: '/dev/dm-0' -> '/dev/evms/hda1'
Added Linux *
Fatal: Empty map section
Finally, I think I have problem with both lilo and initramfs-tools.
lilo can't update because initrd.img-2.6.15-23-386 is zero size, but this is
the only kernel I can boot.
As you see I tried all versions of initramfs-tools (from 0.69, 0.85e to
0.85g from Debian).
What should I do?
