More information. In order to get my system to boot I have to go into the editor in GRUB at boot-time and change the
initrd /initrd.img-2.6.32-3-amd64 to initrd /initrd.img-2.6.32-3-amd64.bak IF I copy the initrd.img-2.6.32-3-amd64.bak file to initrd.img-2.6.32-3-amd64 on /boot (and rerun update-grub) the computer will still NOT boot (i.e it still fails to load the ramdisk). Summary: I am wondering if this is a GRUB problem. I still believe it is a initramfs-tools problem because it only happened when the initramfs-tools package was changed. C.
