I just installed linux-image-2.6.25-2 from Sid. Boot fails with a
mwwage:
"target filesystem doesn't have bootarg"
This is followed by:
"/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off"
2.6.23 still boots normally.
Google shows a number of people with similar problems, mainly on Ubuntu.
I also found a Debian recommendation to modify /etc/fstab in order to
get the file systems recognized, but I'm reluctant to do so for fear of
losing the ability to boot any kernel at all.
Any ideas about this one?
How large is your initrd? Assuming that you run lilo, you may be
experiencing

No, I'm using grub.
Uh-oh, speaking of initrds: I forgot that in my previous message; you
should probably rebuild it if you change your fstab to labels or UUIDs.
How do you do that? I changed to UUID and I got the same message with
2.6.25 although 2.6.23 still boots normally. I don't know how you would
rebuilt initrds.
The easiest way to rebuild an initrd for a given kernel is to run
dpkg-reconfigure on the corresponding linux-image-... package. This
should call an initrd generator as well as update-grub. You can do this
for the 2.6.25 kernel only, to make sure that you are not breaking the
working 2.6.23.
