The alternative to /etc/kernel-img.conf are now hook scripts for kernel and initramfs which will be installed with newer lilo packages (since 22.8-9): /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-runlilo /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-runlilo /etc/initramfs/post-update.d/runlilo Please notice that the use of /etc/kernel-img.conf is deprecated since Debian Squeeze. If you don't want to use the new way with hook scripts you can disable these scripts with 'exit 0'. For details see the large discussion on debian-devel in summer 2010. --- Have a nice day.
