I also have a problem with Dapper, it being that it doesn't boot. At  
all. The only fix I can do is to do

mkinitrd blah blah blah

I presume it's a fault with udev, but I can't source the bug. I've  
appended my info to a current bug, but no-one appears to have any  
answers :S

I'd be willing to leave my machine with a kernel geek for a while,  
but I don't know of any Ubuntu hackers in my area.

It's annoying, because I really do want to help, but I just don't  
have the expertise to fix it :S

All I know is that mkinitramfs doesn't work, mkinitrd does, and the  
only difference between the two is one is for udev, one is for devfs.  
And that irritates me, as my system works beautifully without this  
issue.

Rargh.
