> severity 254352 normal As if the bug is confirmed (i.e. not specific to my computer, or some strange configuration problem), the kernel is totally uninstallable while the bug is not corrected, wouldn't it make sense that the bug be grave? But sorry to have filed it again on the kernel instead of initrd-tools. > Please show me the output of ls -l /proc/scsi as well as that of > mkinitrd when run under sh -x. $ ls -l /proc/scsi total 0 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2004-06-14 18:23 ide-scsi dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2004-06-14 18:23 sbp2_0 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 2004-06-14 18:23 scsi dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2004-06-14 18:23 sg $ /usr/sbin/mkinitrd + /usr/sbin/mkinitrd $Id: mkinitrd,v 1.201 2004/05/16 22:00:48 herbert Exp $ Usage: /usr/sbin/mkinitrd [OPTION]... <-o outfile> [version] Options: -d confdir Specify an alternative configuration directory. -k Keep temporary directory used to make the image. -m command Set the command to make an initrd image. -o outfile Write to outfile. -r root Override ROOT setting in mkinitrd.conf. See mkinitrd(8) for further details. Do you mean the output of the same command triggered in postinst? IIRC the command: $ sudo mkinitrd -o /tmp/initrd.img /lib/modules/2.6.6-1-686 + sudo mkinitrd -o /tmp/initrd.img /lib/modules/2.6.6-1-686 No error, $? was zero.
