Version: 2.4.27-1-686
Hi,
just did my apt-get update and after noticing that apt-get -s dist-upgrade
wants to install kernel 2.4.27, I tried to do it by hand but failed. Here
is the session:
chopin# apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686

dpkg: error processing kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686 (--configure):

Errors were encountered while processing:
kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
The problem seem to be that another stat(1) command was in my path that has
different input/output format than /usr/bin/stat that mkinitrd was
expecting.
Could the kernel image maintainer please ensure that full path of binaries
is used in pre/post-install scripts?
The machine in question (an 266MHz PII) runs on SCSI drives and had no
problems installing kernel 2.4.26 a few days ago. It runs Debian testing
(sarge) distribution with linux kernel 2.4.26 and is days updated with
apt-get dist-upgrade.
Thanks and bye, Dragan

Stat in your path should work.
