Bug Description
Binary package hint: initramfs-tools
For the past 3 days (at least) I have been failing to upgrade 8.04 to 10.04 with do-release-upgrade -d due to a failure in the update-initramfs trigger. The terminal output is shown below:
Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.
cpio: ./etc/modprobe.
update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.
dpkg: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
The upgrade then aborts. Please let me know what further information is required to help fix this issue.

I've now replicated this on a clean install of 8.04 when upgrading to 10.04, screenshot attached showing the point of failure.
