Sorry for being late with my slug runnig etch while all are talking about lenny here.
This is the problem as far as I can decribe it - I'm only a debian *user*: After I upgraded some days ago my slug running Debian Etch 4.03r using apt-get upgrade the slug hangs during reboot. Status led yellow, Ehternet blinking, Disk 1 + 2 off. Ok, maybe fsck running, I waited for over an hour but nothing changed. Then I copied a previously saved /boot - folder to the actual /boot - folder. The slug started normally. My sda ( a 4 GB stick) is partitioned as follows: sda1 /boot (bootable) sda5 /swap sda6 / Today I had to reboot the slug due to a problem with the usb hub which connects two hdds and another stick (swap) to the slug - and the slug hangs again. I then tried the solution of Martin Michelmayr posted here in April for a corrupt lenny update (flashing the slug after booting into the debian installer) = no go. Finally I had to install from scratch completely which is *very* annoying as I lost one whole day for all this until the slug is now up again. I posted the upgrade problem to the german board and there were answers showing the same problem - so I'm not alone... I'm sorry that I don't have soldered a serial port to the slug so I can't say where it hangs during boot. Maybe it's the partitioning where the problem is - are there assumptions made in the upgrade files? Pls ask if I should provide more infos to solve the problem. However *I* will never, never again upgrade the kernel or initramfs. BTW: Is there a way when doing apt-get upgrade to select the files to be upgraded? At the moment I only know the options <Yes> and <No> to all. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
