Title:
  update-initramfs "missing md root"

Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

  $ sudo update-initramfs -u -k all
  update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-28-server
  mkinitramfs: missing md root /dev/mapper/volgroup1-logvol1 /sys entry
  mkinitramfs: workaround is MODULES=most
  mkinitramfs: Error please report the bug
  update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-28-server

  mkinitramfs: Error please report the bug
  update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-24-server

  initramfs-tools version: 0.92bubuntu78

  I upgraded from Ubuntu 8.04 (LTS) to 10.04 (LTS). After upgrade I needed to change MODULES=dep in
  /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf
  (because my BIOS is so old that with the new Ubuntu version MODULES=most takes too much space)

  The I ran "update-initramfs -u" command but got the error above.

  Now I cannot boot Linux until the problem is somehow solved. I
  appreciate any workaround!

  BR,

  Tommi Palomäki
