[Bug 222799] Re: Hardy kernel panic after upgrade

[Steve Langasek]

update-grub handles the case where an initrd doesn't exist by providing
a kernel boot stanza without an initrd line.  There are users who have
kernels that don't use initrds, and update-grub doesn't have enough
information to distinguish this use case from the case where a kernel
package has failed to create an initrd image.

If the kernel package listed itself as 'installed', but the initrd was
missing, this is a bug in the kernel package.  Was the kernel in state
'installed' at the end of this upgrade?
