Bug Description
The seems to be an error in the intel_microcode hook for initramfs update.
This breaks the initrd:
# file /boot/initrd.
/boot/initrd.
This is not the expected gzip file. I am not sure now, whether my system is bootable.
Edit /usr/share/
This will disable the hook and generate a gzipped cpio archive.
Xubuntu 15.04
initramfs-tools 0.103ubuntu15
I also checked an AMD-maschine. No Problems with the initrd.

But I still think, this s a bad way to update an initramfs.
