I tested the v3.19.8-ckt15-vivid kernel and also the 3.19.0-49 kernel. Both of them seemed to boot, but there were graphical glitches and I could not read or do anything.

It says "Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)" I also use btrfs on the root partition (this may be relevant). I attached a photo of the kernel panic screen. When i boot into an older kernel (3.13.0-77-generic) everything works. Currently I'm on linux-generic-lts-wily (4.2.0-27-generic), because that one also works. I made this bug report with the older kernel, so the kernel-version from the automatic debug-information is wrong.
