Hi!
I have a problem trying to generate a new initram:
debian:~# update-initramfs -u -k all
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-686
[: 33: #: unexpected operator
/boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-6-686 does not exist. Cannot update.
debian:~#
please post the output of:
ls -l /var/lib/initramfs-tools/
and of
sh -x /usr/sbin/update-initramfs -u
thanks.

I found this:

...
Then, I ran:
debian:/var/lib/initramfs-tools# /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/uswsusp
[: 33: #: unexpected operator
cp: «/etc/uswsusp.conf» y «/etc/uswsusp.conf» son el mismo fichero
debian:/var/lib/initramfs-tools#
(English: cp: «/etc/uswsusp.conf» and «/etc/uswsusp.conf» are the same
file)
And then:
In the file (/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/uswsusp) we can find:
# The only obligatory option ..
RES_DEV=$(sed -rn 's/^resume device[[:space:]]+[:=][[:space:]]+// p'
/etc/uswsusp.conf)
if [ -z "$RES_DEV" ] || [ ! -b $RES_DEV ]; then
exit 0;
fi
debian:/var/lib/initramfs-tools# sed -rn 's/^resume
device[[:space:]]+[:=][[:space:]]+// p' /etc/uswsusp.conf
# RESUME=/dev/sda3 UUID=6242f227-2677-4df5-85d1-c64262909585
And yes! this is the problem, the previous output in the test.
This line is commented in the installation process of uswsusp, because I
cannot use this swap partition to suspend to disk. Is this line:
debian:/var/lib/initramfs-tools# cat /etc/uswsusp.conf | grep resume
resume device = # RESUME=/dev/sda3 UUID=6242f227-2677-4df5-85d1-c64262909585
Probably, the easiest solution is check if the line is commented.
Thanks a lot.
