Check my problem here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lilo/+bug/88219
I have problem with initramfs and lilo I think. Short story: - upgraded from Ubuntu 6.10 to 7.04 through internet - some packages didn't upgrade (initramfs-tools is one of them) - rebooted with my 2.6.17 kernel - boot error - reboted with my old kernel 2.6.15-23 - boot ok - apt-get upgrade or install initramfs-tools doesn't work because I have zero size initrd.img.old (for kernel which works) - I commented initrd instruction in lilo.conf - upgrade finished - since it added 2.6.20-14 and 2.6.20-13 to the lilo.conf, I added 2.6.15-23 to lilo.conf myself (kernel which worked) - rebooted - boot in new kernel 2.6.20 ends in busybox and messages that it can't mount /sys, /proc, /root/dev and because of that it can't start /sbin/init - boot in old kernel 2.6.15 ends in kernel-panic: unable to mount root ...bla bla... I will try to boot my ubuntu 6.06 DVD if I can solve my problems.
