I found the problem upon trying to reinstall linux-image-2.6.12-10-k7 on
this machine. The error is as follows:

Setting up linux-image-2.6.12-10-k7 (2.6.12-10.28) ...
rm: cannot remove `/tmp/mkinitramfs_obMtwq/bin/sh': No such file or
directory
cpio: ./lib/*: No such file or directory
Not touching initrd symlinks since we are being reinstalled
(2.6.12-10.28)
Not updating image symbolic links since we are being updated
(2.6.12-10.28)

Thanks in advance!
