I tested the initramfs-tools in xenial-proposed, bionic-proposed, and
disco-proposed with all 3 testcases (panic=-1, panic=10, and no panic),
everything worked as expected:
- panic=-1 rebooted instantly after the root partition is not found
- panic=10 rebooted after 10 seconds
- no "panic" entry caused to drop into a basic shell
