Title:
  Error inserting ramzswap in Oneiric Desktop ISO 24th August

Status in “initramfs-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I had this problem when trying to boot a VM with 256 MB of RAM: 
  FATAL: Error inserting ramzswap (/lib/modules/3.0.0-9-generic/kernel/ubuntu/compcache/ramzswap.ko): Invalid module format

  This sounded wrong as an error for such problem, so following apw advice tried booting with more memory and trying to insert the module manually, same issue:
  root at ubuntu:~# modprobe ramzswap
  FATAL: Error inserting ramzswap (/lib/modules/3.0.0-9-generic/kernel/ubuntu/compcache/ramzswap.ko): Invalid module format

  This module failing to load is a common theme in many bugs in the
  database, I do not think they are duplicates, my feeling is that
  something is failing that is not being clearly reported, rather.
