Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: initramfs-tools
I get this output when updating anything that needs to refresh the
initrd:
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-5-686
Command failed
What can I do to debug this?
Running update-initramfs manually produces this output:
> update-initramfs -u
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-5-686
Command failed
Adding -v for verbose gives this:
> update-initramfs -v -u
Available versions: 2.6.17-5-686 2.6.17-4-686
