Bug Description
Binary package hint: initramfs-tools
I was recently bitten by #76872, and did this fix:
> <BenC> pitti: I bet it's initramfs-tools
> <BenC> pitti: Edit: /usr/share/
> <BenC> comment out the modprobe for ide-generic at the end, and run "sudo update-initramfs -u"
And my editor (jed) left a /usr/share/
(ie. until I removed it 2.6.20-4-generic would not boot, and yes I did run update-initramfs every time).
So my request is to please don't include *~ and #*# (emacs temporary) in initrd.

This bug was fixed in the package initramfs-tools - 0.92bubuntu1
---------------
initramfs-tools (0.92bubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low
* Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes: Indep. OPTIONS. init-premount/ thermal as force_load can do this add_modules, however dep_add_modules now auto-detects the ${version} where version is the kernel firmware. agent to the initramfs. Ubuntu's firmware_ helper instead, and the udev hook initramfs. conf as console-setup takes care of keymap loading.
- Change Build-Depends to Build-Depends-
- Use busybox-initramfs for Depends.
- Do not source udev.conf.
- Set BUSBOXDIR properly.
- Keep kinit and gzip in initrd.
- Use -Qb for for module loading to honor blacklists via the use of
MODPROBE_
- all_generic_ide script.
- Remove lvm local-top script (conflicts with lvm-common).
- takeover=1 in update-initramfs.
- Allow the mounting of a root filesystem as a loop device on top
of a host filesystem, used for wubi installs.
- Add vfat support to the initramfs.
- Reduce timeout to 30 seconds -- corner cases (giant
disk arrays, clusters) will need to provide their own rootdelay=
boot arg.
- Keep more meaningful text for no root device panic.
- Provide a clearer error on mount failure of the Windows host
filesystem.
- Add 2>&1 to the run-init line.
- Source /scripts/functions in resume script.
- resume UUID upgrade.
- Add mountroot failure support, to allow meaningful messages when
no root device can be found.
- Panic if either the root device doesn't exist, or vol_id cannot
identify it. Allows for mountroot failure hooks for md devices
to be displayed.
- Ignore blacklist for forced vga= usage.
- Loop for 5 seconds waiting for $suspend to show up, adjustable
with the resumedelay= command-line arg.
- Load virtio_pci for MODULES=most.
- Usplash pulsates until the real init takes over.
- Drop scripts/
for us during initramfs creation.
- Load thermal modules on lpia.
- Allow for alternative PREREQS to be specified using | as the
separator.
- Add udf to auto_add_modules. It was originally added to
dep_
modules needed for the root filesystem.
* hook-functions:
- Refer to /lib/firmware/
version we are building an initramfs for.
- Do not copy /lib/udev/
udev has /lib/udev/
copies this to the initramfs for us.
- Dropped the manual_add_firmware function, as initramfs-tools now
checks the firmware field in the module it is copying, and copies
the firmware required by that module if its available.
* Drop hooks/keymap and the KEYMAP variable setting in
conf/
* hooks/udevhelper: Drop, udev already copies what it needs.
* hooks/legacylvm: Drop, as it refers to binaries and directories our
lvm package doesn't have.

* update-initramfs: mbr_check() fix for /dev/md/X naming. (closes: #469312)
Thanks to Axel Beckert <email address hidden> for report.
* hook-functions: MODULES=dep fix error message.
