Bug Description
On a system with swap disabled (removed from /etc/fstab) and package zram-config installed update-initramfs -u will emit something like following:
I: The initramfs will attempt to resume from /dev/zram1
I: (UUID=1d4b8573-
I: Set the RESUME variable to override this.
Obviously, resuming from zram device without actual non-volatile storage is not going to work. update-initramfs should be fixed to ignore /dev/zram* because otherwise the user must e.g. create file /etc/initramfs-
RESUME=none
to workaround the issue, which may be a bit hard to guess from the above notice only.
