Public bug reported:

Installing Ubuntu 16.10 dualbooting with Arch Linux on Thinkpad X220T.
Not using UEFI mode, only BIOS. Install and boot of Ubuntu worked fine,
but Ubuntu's automatic GRUB configuration is forgetting to include
initramfs-linux.img under the initrd boot parameter under the Arch Linux
(Rolling) option, as found in post #12 here:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=197832 .

When missing this part of the parameter, the Arch kernel panics and
fails to boot.

** Affects: grub-installer (Ubuntu)
