Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

If rootmnt is not an immediate subdirectory of /, run-init will choke as
it tries to clear out the ramdisk. The reason for this failure wasn't
immediately clear to me. A warning from the init script would be helpful
to people who hack on initramfs scripts.

if [ "`echo $rootmnt | grep -o '^/\+[^/]\+/*$'`" != "$rootmnt" ]; then
 log_warning_msg "root directory $rootmnt should be an immediate subdirectory 
of /"
fi
