Appears you have a boot image 2.6.30.7-libre-fshoppe1, but no /lib/modules to match (somehow deleted or never installed). initramfs-tools is attempting to create the initramfs, but can't find the requisite modules. Note that this would affect ANY kernel in boot - whether installed by dpkg/apt or manually. As Chris mentioned, you can use dpkg -S to find out what installed them, if it was from a .deb package. After that you can re-install the kernel via dpkg, or delete the kernel via dpkg (I assume you have another working kernel, since you can boot the system - 2.6.30.7 is an old kernel, so you might want to have a more recent one). Once you have a /lib/modules for all your kernels in /boot, rerun "sudo dpkg --configure -a" and you should have a working system. jeff _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
