Package: linux-image-3.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64/wheezy-backports uptodate
3.16.7-ckt2-1~bpo70+1
Version: 3.16.7
After installing the Backport Package the system cannot boot with the new kernel. The System hangs and falls back to dracut console. It mentions
that the root filesystem UID cannot not be found. The system itself has a
boot disk (vda3) and the root is on (vda1). I checked the grub.cfg the
Filesystem uid's are correct.
Reboot to the original kernel 3.2.0 works though.
During the installation of the Backport Kernel dracut warns that it can not
find consolefonts, ... (the rest I can't remember, sadly not logged)
Looks to me that some depencies are not in the package which are necessary
when initramfs is replaced with dracut.
I am using Debian GNU/Linux 7, Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian
3.2.63-2+deb7u2 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Hi
This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.
If you can reproduce it with
- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports
please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.
Regards,
Salvatore
