This should be fixed in 2.6.14-7 already, i don't know why this is not, but
anyway, there is no 2.6.14-7 kernel in the archive, and this is definitively
fixed in 2.6.15-1, so you can simply abort your stuff, erase
/etc/kernel/*/mkvmlinuz, (or coment the three debconf lines and add
bootloader=yaboot in place), then upgrade to 2.6.15-1, and reinstall
mkvmlinuz.
