If it does not print the log message, then it probably means it is now
able to use getpwnam(3) properly. Is the authorized_keys file present?
Is it correct? Does it have the right permissions?
Eventually, you could try to modify
`/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/dropbear` to add:
copy_exec /usr/bin/strace
Then use strace when starting dropbear from the initramfs shell. That
could help us solving the problem.
