Package: grub Version: 0.97-58 Severity: normal Hi.
I'm not really sure if this is the same bug. Most of the description seems to fit what I see. I can't configure linux-image-2.6.30-2-amd64 on my system: I get the following error: Running update-initramfs. update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.30-2-amd64 initrd.img(/boot/initrd.img-2.6.30-2-amd64 ) points to /boot/initrd.img-2.6.30-2-amd64 (/boot/initrd.img-2.6.30-2-amd64) -- doing nothing at /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.30-2-amd64.postinst line 569. vmlinuz(/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30-2-amd64 ) points to /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30-2-amd64 (/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30-2-amd64) -- doing nothing at /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.30-2-amd64.postinst line 569.

First migration to new grub worked fine last weekend , this is the first kernel upgrade after the migration. I use the same grub and kernel on a laptop, also debian testing, and upgraded today qwithout problems (both systems have very similar packages installed and comparable software configurations, however the hardware is very different). -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to de_DE.utf8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages grub depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.27 Debian configuration management sy ii grub-pc 1.97~beta3-1 GRand Unified Bootloader, version grub recommends no packages. grub suggests no packages. -- debconf information: * grub/migrate_from_legacy: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
