Just did a du and after that the boot isn't working. Luckily it works to boot with previous kernel. I will try to attach a photo of screen with boot failure. |

It's a bug in busybox 1:1.19.2-1, downgrade to 1:1.18.5-1 from testing and recreate the affected initrds.
i386:
Code:
# apt-get install busybox/testing
# update-initramfs -k 3.0-7.slh.2-aptosid-686 -d
# update-initramfs -k 3.0-7.slh.2-aptosid-686 -c
amd64:
Code:
# apt-get install busybox/testing
# update-initramfs -k 3.0-7.slh.2-aptosid-amd64 -d
# update-initramfs -k 3.0-7.slh.2-aptosid-amd64 -c
adapt kernel versions as needed. |

Same problem here with kernel 3.0-7.slh.2. Previous kernel boots fine.
EDIT: Fixed using slh's instructions. |

Fixed in busybox 1:1.19.2-1+c0.aptosid.2; uploaded to our archive.
If you're affected by 1:1.19.2-1, please make sure to update to busybox 1:1.19.2-1+c0.aptosid.2, instead of downgrading it to testing and re-create the broken initramfs images as shown above. |

Given that it claims to fix this bug reported by Stefan, properly yes.
Good & fast job! |

I agree, this is aptosid in its essence, fast help and then a fast fix in aptosid repo. This is is one of the reasons to use aptosid, thanks  |

Code:
* resurrect applets-fallback.patch for now,
thank you Stefan Lippers-Hollmann for the rediff.
This restores the (broken) initramfs usage
(Closes: #646284)
