Hello,

I am trying to understand which problem exactly you have
encountered, but I am a bit confused: you have filed a bug
against flash-kernel but in the log you have provided, it is not
flash-kernel that shows an error message, but initramfs-tools.  I
also cannot see in which context that has happened and how it
relates to debootstrap - by default debootstrap does neither
install a kernel image nor flash-kernel.  From your log, it looks
like you have manually interrupted the update-initramfs process,
resulting in the error message above:

> ^Cdpkg: error processing package initramfs-tools (--configure):
  ^^

Please explain in more detail what exactly is the bug in
flash-kernel that you would like to submit.

Regards,
Karsten
