[Bug 1317437] Re: wubi kernel option "rw" required

[Noorez]

It seems that the fix that I had for this has long since been
outstanding. I'd like to resurrect it if possible. If anyone has any
thoughts on it, please let me know or what I should do please let me
know.

(It has been some time since I've been able to look at this so I might
have to rebuild my development environment to reconfirm the fix)

Title:
  wubi kernel option "rw" required

Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  We have installed ubuntu beta-64amd.iso (trusty tahr) as wubi on a
  windows 8.1.

  Since upgrade
   * busybox-initramfs from "1.20.0-8.1ubuntu1" to "1.21.0-1ubuntu1"
   * busybox-static from "1.20.0-8.1ubuntu1" to "1.21.0-1ubuntu1"
  the wubi installation won't work / start and ends with the massage:
  "Bei der Ueberpruefung des Laufwerkes auf / wurden schwere Fehler gefunden"

  "key: »I« zum Ignorieren, »S« ueberspringt das Einhaengen, »M« fuer
  manuelle Wiederherstellung"

  Changing the sequence of "/boot/grub/grub.cfg" inside the line:
   * linux	/boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-24-generic root=UUID=B65449E05449A449 loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro   quiet splash $vt_handoff
  into
   * linux	/boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-24-generic root=UUID=B65449E05449A449 loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk rw  quiet splash $vt_handoff
  (kernel option »ro« into »rw«) lets start the wubi installation without any restrictions.
