(If you do not have a floppy drive in this computer, use "grub-mkdevicemap -n" to avoid having a spurious entry for a floppy drive in the file.) After that, run "aptitude install -f" to finish the installation of linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64. Before you try this, copy the current /boot/grub/device.map. If the above procedure does not work for you, post the contents of the new and old device.map file, as well as the output of the "mount" command. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
