Savvas, there was no particular reason to change or recreate initrd.gz - I don't remember exactly, but I suppose the file or link was missing, too. So there was some reason, but that didn't fix it.
I forgot to mention here, that there is some kind of error in reasoning when updating a kernel of a live system: the live system is mounted read-only and updates to the kernel don't update the kernel in the live image. One cannot expect that updates would also change the read-only image... I reached a point where I can update the kernel without getting errors on the next reboot: there is some script (if I remember right it was 'update-initramfs') which is a bit modified on live images compared to real installations. I made changes to that script according to the real one so that executing the script wouldn't break my installation anymore. For me, there's one decision to be made and to be tested: option 1: complete install of ubuntu on a usb? option 2: installing a live image on a usb and make the image somehow writable? -- update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated) / cp: cannot stat `/vmlinuz': No such file or directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557023 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
