Public bug reported:
Hi,
I'm using a preseed file to install precise but like to install the backported
raring kernel (linux-image-generic-lts-raring).
This is what I used regarding the package selection (if necessary, I can
provide the full preseed file):
tasksel tasksel/skip-tasks string standard
tasksel tasksel/first multiselect ubuntu-minimal
d-i pkgsel/include string linux-image-generic-lts-raring openssh-server
lxc-docker
d-i pkgsel/update-policy select none
After the installer finishes, grub boots the raring kernel (3.8) but panics:
[ 2.733887] VFS: Cannot open root device "mapper/ubuntu--vg-root"
After booting the old kernel I figured out that there was no initrd. I
supposed that running update-initramfs manually would have fixed that
problem, but I rather reverted to my old preseed file and installer
linux-image-generic-lts-raring manually. This creates an initrd and
everything works as expected.
