We don't currently guarantee that loading new modules after an upgrade
will work until the next reboot.
However, this looks like it is only 30 seconds or so after boot, so
something else is probably at play. Did you flash the kernel
correctly?
Sorry for the trouble,
Jonathan

Indeed I did not and flash-kernel did not run by itself

After running flash-kernel and rebooting, the error does not occur
anymore and USB devices are mounted correctly.
Sorry for the disturbance…

Am I correct in guessing that the installed flash-kernel is version
2.37?
Hmm, this doesn't seem to be the same as 550584 since in this
example the kernel was flashed when creating the initramfs and not
when updating it 2.6.32-38 -> 2.6.32-39squeeze1, instead of the other
way around.
Reassigning. flash-kernel maintainers, please feel free to assign
as appropriate once this is understood better.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Right. Maybe should I mention that I use flashybrid (0.16), although it
didn't seem to bother the creation of the initramfs. Anyway, below is
reported flashybrid configuration in case it could be related.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@sheevaplug:/# cat /etc/flashybrid/config
# This is the main configuration file for the flashybrid system.
# The mount point of your flash memory.
FLASHMOUNT=/
# You probably want a ramdisk to be set up with directories that the system
# needs to write data to frequently, so that your flash disk can be mounted
# read-only. Flash memory can only be written to several thousand times over
# its lifetime, so setting up a ramdisk will extend the lifetime of your
# flash a lot. This is the location to mount the ramdisk. Comment out the
# line to not set up a ram disk.
RAMMOUNT=/ram
# Commands to run to enter full mode. The disk will be mounted before
# this.
FULL_CMDS="mount -o remount,rw /"
# Commands to run to enter embedded mode. The disk will be unmounted before
# this. If you wanted to spin a disk down, you could add a hdparm -y
# command.
EMBED_CMDS="mount -o remount,ro /"
# This controls the maximum ammount of memory you want to allocate
# to the tmpfs RAM drive
# This parameter is optional, and if you do not supply if, tmpfs will
# occupy up to 50% of your available memory (ram+swap)
FLASH_MAX=150m
# You may also want to edit the other files in this directory:
# ramtmp, ramstore
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@sheevaplug:/# cat /etc/flashybrid/ramstore
# This is a list of directories that are used to store variable data
# that is written to during normal operation of the system, and that should
# be preserved across reboots.
#
# On boot, the listed directories on your flash disk will be copied to the
# ram disk, and then bind mounts will be used to make the directories on
# the ram disk replace them.
#
# On shutdown, the contents of those directories on the ramdisk will be
# rsynced back to the flash disk.
#
# Directories listed here that are not present will be silently ignored.
# Do not put the trailing slash on directories!

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I've noticed that when the kernel gets upgraded by apt-get upgrade that
it does *not* run flash-kernel on my Squeeze system.
I have a suspicion that the fact that the kernel name/version has not
changed might have something to do with it.
Before upgrade:
colin@muscat:~$ uname -a
Linux muscat 2.6.32-5-iop32x #1 Thu Mar 22 22:43:41 UTC 2012 armv5tel
GNU/Linux
After Upgrade and reboot:
colin@muscat:~$ uname -a
Linux muscat 2.6.32-5-iop32x #1 Thu Mar 22 22:43:41 UTC 2012 armv5tel
GNU/Linux
After running flash-kernel by hand and another reboot:
colin@muscat:~$ uname -a
Linux muscat 2.6.32-5-iop32x #1 Sun May 6 07:47:32 UTC 2012 armv5tel
GNU/Linux
I've attached the console and dpkg logs.
Colin

This is a well known issue which has been resolved in testing/unstable:
flash-kernel (3.0~rc.2) experimental; urgency=low
* New kernel and initramfs hooks, new logic: flash-kernel always installs
the latest version according to linux-version and ignores other calls.
- Fixes installation of new kernel ABIs; closes: #550584.

Can we please get this into stable on security grounds then.
Currently if there is a kernel security upgrade then a user is likely to
do the install and reboot and think they are safe when in fact they are not.
