Yes, it is because I updated recently the debian kernel. So I think it thinks the older is newer now. But after moving the links to the /boot/ dir, I get: $ ls -al /boot/ | egrep "vmlinuz|initrd" lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2020-03-01 15:18:21 initrd.img -> initrd.img-5.5.4-amd64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 39127233 2020-02-14 17:23:07 initrd.img-5.4.0-4-amd64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16005450 2020-03-01 14:41:38 initrd.img-5.5.4-amd64 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 2020-03-01 15:18:21 initrd.img.old -> initrd.img-5.4.0-4-amd64 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2020-03-01 15:18:21 vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-5.5.4-amd64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5627632 2020-02-13 06:14:49 vmlinuz-5.4.0-4-amd64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9331760 2020-02-26 09:38:52 vmlinuz-5.5.4-amd64 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 2020-03-01 15:18:21 vmlinuz.old -> vmlinuz-5.4.0-4-amd64 So the .old points now to the older one. But I don't need the debian kernel anyway since I build it on my own. I haven't removed it just in case. :] But I think I will remove it when I set everything up to avoid such situations.
