I was trying to remove a 2.6.27 kernel I had built from source and somehow the
initrd was removed before initramfs-tools tried to remove it.
can you put an "set -x" on top of /etc/kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools
when trying to purge that one.
thanks
Note that the kernels I had problems removing were kernels built with
"make deb-pkg" rather than kernel-package's "make-kpkg".
