[Touch-packages] [Bug 1667512] Re: update-initramfs hangs on upgrade, dpkg unusable, unbootable system
Have the same problem since yesterday. I'm having 4.4.0-47 4.4.0-59 4.4.0-62 4.4.0-64 installed. I was trying to upgrade my system yesterday and 4.4.0-66 was about to be installed, but it hangs on update-initramfs or to be more precise it's hanging on "Building cpio" when running update-initramfs -u -v Problem is related probably to last 2 upgrades which I did.
