Package: linux-image-2.6.18-4-amd64
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-11
Severity: critical
File: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-amd64
Justification: breaks the whole system

In -3-, sata_via was linked in. In -4-, it's a module. As a consequence,
the initrd.img could no longer mount root.

Fixed by

/etc/initramfs-tools/modules
sata_via
sd_mod

For reference,

/proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1] 
md0 : active raid1 sdb2[0] sda2[1]
      154191744 blocks [2/2] [UU]
      
unused devices: <none>

At least a warning would have been appreciated. I was very lucky in that
our hoster offered me access via a console server; this would have been
pretty much impossible to remotely debug otherwise.
