I haven't tried to boot Ubuntu off a second disk since my initial
experiments, when I was deciding whether or not to adopt it. However, I
can confirm that changes that have been made in the meantime to the
parse_numeric function in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions
are functionally equivalent to my proposed fix, which did, of course, work.

Best regards
