Bug#283368: kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686: /initrd.img link to /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-1-286 not created on update.
Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686
Version: 2.6.8-10
Severity: important
I have installed the kernel-image-2.6 metapackage, and so this package
was updated/installed when I updated my system. In the process of the update lilo
aborted with the message 'Fatal: open /initrd.img: No such file or
directory' in it's logfile.
Creating this link manually (with 'ln -s/boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-1-686 /initrd.img') solved the problem.
