Still no movement on this bug. :-( I have added blkid and its lib to the tags, as blkid also fails to list /dev/sda5 (even after the above work-around to manually create the symlink) but it does list all other partitions.
Not sure if blkid is the source of the problem, if that is used by update-initramfs and update-grub. Upgrading to grub2 has not resolved the problem. -- [karmic] fails to find root due to missing symbolic link file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/377405 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
