Aha. mkinitrd has been deprecated and etch already used update-initramfs instead; mdadm only really supports that. Can you please make a copy of the current /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-686 and put it somewhere where I can download it? Uploading to ftp://ftp.madduck.net/incoming/ would work, too. Can you then please rebuild the 2.6.26 initramfs like this: update-initramfs -ctk 2.6.26-1-686 You can later use -u instead of -c to update it. Now try a boot. If that does not work, please also make this /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-686 available (under a different name).
