Package: linux-image-2.6.20.3
Version: 3
Severity: normal

If initramfs-tools are installed, the kernel fails to install with this
message: 

Setting up linux-image-2.6.20-1-k7 (2.6.20-3) ...
Running depmod.
Finding valid ramdisk creators.
Failed to find suitable ramdisk generation tool for kernel version

Interesting is, that it looked for yaird, but I purged yaird recently in
favor for initramfs-tools. 
According the dependencies, initramfs-tools should be an alternaive to
yaird and sufficient. 

dpkg -l intiramfs-tools yaird

Mmm, indeed, there is still yaird in it.. I cannot remember, that
i manually configured it that way.

However, it seems that is was a clear case of FBKS :-|

Thanks for the hint. I feel free to close the bug then...
