Package: lilo
Version: 1:23.2-2

Arch: i386

After a normal wheezy i386 installation, the system don't starts at very first 
boot.

The system says not disk partitions found and halt with a kernel panic...

After find for a cause i conclude: 

- The kernel is loaded, but not the initrd stuff is not, so the disk controller 
driver module is not loaded and the disk is not found....
- The line "initrd=/initrd.img is missing in the lilo.conf.
- Bootting in rescue mode, adding the missing line in lilo.conf and executing 
lilo, repair the problem: the sys will boot ok after reboot...

Some notes:

- I suspect some similar stuff occur with grub: i attempt reinstall the system 
using grub instead lilo and the same problem appears: but i don't watch for 
errors in grub configuration file.

- Same error appears with both 2.x and 3.x kernels versions.

- I probe installing the system in two different motherboards, with deferents 
disks controllers and the problem persists. Never the less, both of them have 
IDE controllers....

Regards
