Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.92o
Severity: normal

  Hello,

when upgrading a server from Etch to Lenny, the Linux kernel 2.6.26
fails to install, due to a problem in initramfs-tools's configuration,
i.e. MODULES=DEP :

# update-initramfs -v -u -k 2.6.26-1-amd64
Keeping /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-amd64.dpkg-bak

mkinitramfs: missing cciss!c0d0p root /dev/mapper/systeme-racine /sys
entry
mkinitramfs: workaround is MODULES=most
mkinitramfs: Error please report the bug
Removing /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-amd64.dpkg-bak
update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-amd64


I suppose it's related to other similar bugs #507619 and #517072.


  The suggested workaround worked, hopefully.

        Fred.
