"first reported on 2008-03-13'
Must have something to do with the 13th... Just did today's upgrades
(April 13th) and the linux-restricted 386 kernel drops to initramfs
busybox shell. Booting into -generic works fine.
Oddly enough, installing live-initramfs in the working (generic) kernel
did not
Jan-Marc: live-initramfs is not appropriate, though it may have happened
to fix this by accident. A more correct fix is just to run 'update-
initramfs -u' as root, as my (updated) instructions in the description
of this bug indicate.

REGRESSION: glibc 2.7-9ubuntu1 NSS module broken due to tool
Hi,
I had a problem after upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04. Got the message:
"Waiting for root file system". Below my way to solve/work around this
issue.
I did boot the system with an older kernel, you can choose from GRUB.
After logging in I installed "live-initramfs" using the package manager.
It s
It's a development build. Don't like breakage, then don't use it, it's
as simple as that. People using Hardy are ( or at least should be! )
aware that such things can occur, so they should deal with it
accordingly, period.

We are investigating what happened here (in terms of processes) and will
make testing improvements as a result. I don't want to go into details
prematurely.
Of course, resource-hungry testing measures are always a trade-off
between development efficiency and safety. Ubuntu has derived great

Colin:
Why dont you run updates for important base packages through a
virtualbox installation of Ubuntu first. If it breaks you can just go
back to save point X and fix it. Nobody will ever know ;)
The process could even be automated.
Like:
Only send the update if the vbox installtion reboots an
Peter: this is not directly related to this bug. It looks like the
directory /var/cache/debconf is entirely missing, perhaps due to some
filesystem corruption. Feel free to contact me by private mail
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and I'll try to help you out more.

Not 100% sure this is related. I'm running Hardy Alpha 64-bit, not
because I am experienced, but because it has the drivers necessary for
my wi-fi that Gutsy lacked.
Very successful until recent upgrade which failed to complete. The
system is still booting and working fine but it impossible to do
I just reinstalled my hardy laptop because of this.
I tried a lot of stuff without luck.
Since I had no Internet access to check this page, which could had saved me the
reinstalation.
Tough luck...

I've contacted Elias by private e-mail to try to diagnose his problem.
If it turns out to be general I'll update the instructions here.

Thanks Bremm for your hint!!
Sudo and su -c weren't working for me until I did "export MALLOC_CHECK_=1"
After that, I have downgraded the package and everything is working again now :D

Guys,
I guess I did a miracle. lol

OK, stuff happens. I recovered my laptop and will recover my server that
is being configured for production. While I did not expect bugs that
severe, I was warned and recovery was not that difficult. No biggie.
