Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

All started when new kernel images where installed and old backport
images should leave....after an apt-get autoremove i got the following

update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-12-generic

and everything seems like falling into an infinite loop.  The last lines of  
sudo update-initramfs -u -v:
...............
Adding module /lib/modules/2.6.27-14-generic/kernel/drivers/ieee1394/ohci1394.ko
Adding module /lib/modules/2.6.27-14-generic/kernel/drivers/ieee1394/sbp2.ko
Adding binary /usr/share/initramfs-tools/init

...and everything starts going terribly slow until the system locks up...I am 
on:
Kubuntu 8.10 AMD64
2.6.27-14-generic
initramfs-tools version 0.92bubuntu16

It is quite annoying since i cannot apt-get anything (i tried to
manually remove the packages but it didn't work out :-) )

Thank you!
