This looks like the previously reported bug#461997.
To help avoid cluttering our bug tracking system with duplicate
reports for same bugs, please check before creating a new report if the
bug found has already been reported.
To help solve this bug, please provide the output of the following two
commands:
lsmod
yaird --test
A possible workaround, if you are not using encrypted filesystems below
your root mount, is to comment out the "INPUT" line in
/etc/yaird/Default.cfg
Of course another "workaround" is to completely abandon the package
containing the bug, as you mention in your later post to this bugreport.
If you don't care about the benefits offered by yaird, then you are
probably better off using the mainstream initramfs-tools anyway.
But even if you favor initramfs-tools over yaird, then please consider
reinstalling yaird and provide the above material, to help solve this
bug.
If both yaird and initramfs-tools is installed then yaird will not be
used by default when installing official Debian kernels. In other words,
if you did not manually edit /etc/kernel-img.conf, then reinstalling
yaird now, after you've swithced to initramfs-tools, should not cause
your system to break. So please consider helping out.
Kind regards,
- Jonas
