Subject: installation-reports: Needs a /vmlinuz file that points to boot image?
Package: installation-reports

Dear Maintainer,

After upgrade from stable(Wheezy) to testing(Jessie) (via modifying
/etc/apt/sources.list to say Jessie instead of Stable or Wheezy), the machine
wouldn't boot. (grub couldn't find file or something like that). I fixed the
boot from a system Rescue CD, using chroot, and some commands like update-
grub2, grub-install, etc...

After booting back into Debian Testing, I noticed that the new kernel wasn't
installing. Found a /vmlinuz-old file pointing to old kernel, renamed it to
/vmlinuz, and then reinstalled new kernels, etc... This renaming seams to have
fixed it so new kernel(s) will install.

Don't know why this file was /vmlinuz-old, maybe it's possible that at some
point I was doing something with it?

p.s.
There was also a problem with KDE 'plasma-desktop',
needing X11 to be setup so 'Anybody' can use it.
('Console Users Only' didn't work)
`sudo dpkg-reconfigure x11-common`
