Due to a mistake on my part, I crashed my Debian and had to reinstall it. Debian buster then reinstalled https://www.cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/qnap/ts-41x/deinstall/. Then I went to https://github.com/amouiche/qnap_mtd_resize_for_bullseye/blob/master/bullseye_upgrade.md and that's where I ran into problems.

When upgrading apt I get this error message: Setting up initramfs-tools (0.140)... update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated) Processing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.140)... update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.10.0-25-marvell kirkwood-qnap: machine: QNAP TS419 family Using DTB: kirkwood-ts419-6282.dtb Installing /usr/lib/linux-image-5.10.0-25-marvell/kirkwood-ts419-6282.dtb into /boot/dtbs/5.10.0-25-marvell/./kirkwood-ts419-6282.dtb Taking backup of kirkwood-ts419-6282.dtb.

Who can help me?

I solved the problem, restored an mtd4 backup using "sudo dd if=mtd4_resized of=/dev/mtdblock4", restarted and then the qnap_mtd_resize.py script ran without an error message and apt upgrade ran without errors. The whole thing is strange...
