Re: Squeeze-updates not working

Hi ,

Here's the output:


[~]:11 $ cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.32-5-amd64 (Debian 2.6.32-39) (dannf@debian.org)
(gcc version 4.3.5 (Debian 4.3.5-4) ) #1 SMP Thu Nov 3 03:41:26 UTC
2011


[~]:12 $ apt-cache policy linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64
linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64:

This is confusing. Linux image is 2.6.32-5 but "installed version" is
2.6.32-39 ! Am I missing something ?

Perhaps you already have the newer kernel installed?
What is the output of the following:
  cat /proc/version
  apt-cache policy linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64
