Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-image-
Since last kernel update to 2.6.15-23 my MacMini stopped booting from the default yaboot image.
It works fine with the old 2.6.15-22 version, so I booted that and found that /boot/initrd.
Then I tried to reinstall the linux-image-
# aptitude reinstall linux-image-

I'm setting the importance to high since the system becomes unbootable after upgrading kernel version.
