I see the same error in the current edgy udev:

Setting up udev (093-0ubuntu2) ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-3-686
cpio: ./lib/udev/path_id: No such file or directory


The problem is that /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/udev (from the udev 
package) does this:

copy_exec /lib/udev/path_id /lib/udev

but the udev package no longer contains /lib/udev/path_id

I don't know whether that line needs removing from the script, or
whether the path_id file needs adding to the package.  I worked around
the error message by doing:

sudo touch /lib/udev/path_id (but didn't try booting since, so I don't
know if it worked)
