Thanks a lot for the confirmation.


Great that Etch has more than a single ramdisk generator, so that 
concrete cases like this does not become showstoppers for our users, 
only annoyances.

Unfortunate IMHO that Lenny will *not* have multiple ramdisk generators: 
yaird is considered too broken by the initramfs-tools package maintainer 
and release managers (see bug#457177).


Kind regards,

Jonas

yaird package maintainer
