Package: linux-image-2.6.18-6-686 Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch1 Severity: wishlist I encountered the following problem on 2 systems, that were upgraded several times from older debian stable releases and used custom compiled kernels before. apt-get install linux-image-2.6.18-6-686 aborted after the preinst script with the message 'Ok, Aborting' The reason was a missing 'do_initrd = Yes' statement in /etc/kernel-img.conf and debconf set to Noninteractive. After changing debconf to Dialog it was obvious what was missing. Additional information instead of only 'Ok, Aborting' would be nice (and would shorten the time to find the configuration error ;-) -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.19 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968)

Version: 2.6.25-1 templates files got rewritten. still if you don't use debian installer you still need to add do_initrd. -- maks
