[Bug 309762] Re: initramfs fails to mount ext4 root partition or provide user intervention (even when ext4 module is available in the image)

Just to confirm, the custom_mount_ext4 script is only needed in local-
bottom.

Also, the `modprobe ext4` is not needed, since it's compiled into the
kernel now. However, it's probably wise to using `-t ext4` as the mount
option.

#! /bin/sh
mount -t ext4 /dev/sda1 /root
mount -t ext4 /dev/disk/by-uuid/...... /root

Works like a charm for me.
