Try adding the following to /etc/kernel-img.conf: ramdisk = /usr/sbin/mkinitrd.yaird Afterwards, run the following command: dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.16-1-686 If that works, the bug is in initramfs-tools (the ramdisk generator currently used by default), not the kernel package itself. You may still want to switch back to using initramfs-tools after the bug has been fixed. You can read more on the differences betweeen the two tools here: http://wiki.debian.org/InitrdReplacementOptions - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm
