Package: linux-image-2.6.25-1-amd64
Followup-For: Bug #479101
Just a "me too": I today upgraded multiple machines to 2.6.25-1-amd64 and
they all show the same symptoms, kernel cannot find the initramfs.
The machine worked with 2.6.24 and 2.6.22 before.
To test my configuration, installed 2.6.18 afterwards, and that boots,
while 2.6.25 fails, so it is definitely something to do with the kernel
(and not lilo etc.)
Here are the image entries one one machine:
image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.25-1-amd64
initrd = /boot/initrd.img-2.6.25-1-amd64
label = debian
append = "root=/dev/sda2 rootfstype=reiserfs relatime"
image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-1-amd64
initrd = /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-1-amd64
label = old
append = "root=/dev/sda2 rootfstype=reiserfs relatime"
And here my full lilo.conf on another system showing exactly the same symptoms:
boot = /dev/hda
root = /dev/hda2
read-only
compact # faster, but won't work on all systems.
lba32
#serial = 1,9600n8
vga = 0 # force sane state
default = old
delay = 0
image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.25-1-amd64
label = default
initrd = /boot/initrd.img-2.6.25-1-amd64
image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-1-amd64
label = old
initrd = /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-1-amd64
