What makes you say this? Every Ubuntu system I've ever installed has an
initrd.img-KERNEL_VERSION in /boot. In this context, I'm talking about
systems installed using the stock installers (primarily server, but
desktop was that way last I installed one using the stock installer).
We always generate initrd.img and use it as fallback if/when
initrd-less boot fails. The vast majority of Ubuntu boots are
successful without initrd, for example almost all Ubuntu Public Cloud
images.
Ah ok, I don't know how cloud installations work. Interesting! Do you
have a pointer to some docs somewhere? I was really assuming that kind
of everything uses initramfs/initrd nowadays.
Thanks,
Bernd
