Subject: linux-image-2.6.39-bpo.2-amd64 root filesystem not found
Package: linux-image-2.6 / linux-image-2.6.39-bpo.2-amd64
Version: 2.6.39-bpo.2-amd64
This is a new bug report as suggested by Ben Hutchings in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=636123
Starting situation:
Debian Squeeze with 2.6.38-5 kernel from backport.
Performed action:
Upgrade kernel to 2.6.39-2 using apt.
apt-get install linux-image-2.6.39-bpo.2-amd64
The kernel upgrade goes well (but the old kernel gets removed?!).
Problem found:
After upgrade the system no longer boots, the root system cannot be found:
"No filesystem could mount root, tried:"
"Kernel panic = not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unkown-block(0,0)."
Strange thing is that there's nothing behind "tried:"?
Anyway, the system didn't boot anymore.
Since the old kernel was removed, I had no way to get into the system anymore.
I managed to boot a liveusb and verified that all harddisks were working ok and
accessible.
Then I just tried to reinstall Debian Squeeze on top of the existing
problematic installation.
This means:
1. Boot from netinst image (usb).
2. Choose Text Auto
3. Enter some stuff.
4. Choose the existing partition which already contains Debian installed, but
with malfunctioning 2.6.39 kernel.
5. Wait and reboot.
6. Notice that it now works, having kernel 2.6.32-5, the default for the
netinst image I was using.
After talking some more in bug 636123, we found out that the initd image for
2.6.39-5 was missing.

Ben requested the dpkg.log section covering the upgrade, but it seems that
timeframe is missing/overwritten.
I do have the term.log from apt covering the upgrade (bottom of report)

I am willing to try again to upgrade and see if we can reproduce it.
I just need to find out how to do this without the old/working kernel being
removed.
Is there anything I can do to gather more information?
