Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.26-24lenny1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system


New version of kernal installed 20Aug2010. Tried booting this AM. The new kernal could not have been tested with Lilo. I cannot use GRUB as it corrupts its own boot stage 1.5 in a system crash or sometimes after "/sbin/halt".

N.B. my e-mail address is now: jmdh01@btinternet.com

This whole area is a big mess in Debian 5.0 'lenny'.

Starting with the next release there is a policy for boot loader
packages that will ensure that boot loaders are updated on disk if and
when they need to be, without requiring the user or installer to create
any configuration file.

It can be empty.  It should certainly not have any of the lines:

do_bootloader = no
postinst_hook = update-grub
postrm_hook = update-grub

As I suspected.  You should remove grub and modify /etc/kernel-img.conf
as explained above.

Run 'lilo' to update it for the kernel you just installed.  Later kernel
upgrades will now do this automatically.
