This bug was fixed in the package initramfs-tools - 0.137ubuntu12.1
---------------
initramfs-tools (0.137ubuntu12.1) groovy; urgency=medium
* scripts/local-premount/resume:
- Use readlink -f to correctly handle non-symlink $resume
(LP: #1876570)
* hook-functions:
- when MODULES=list there will be no 'kernel' dir, so don't try
to find anything there, as it will log an error
(LP: #1927779)
* hooks/fsck:
- don't check PASSNO, always include fsck
(LP: #1917780)

Bug description:
[Impact]
* initramfs-tools does not include fsck in initrd if MNT_PASS equals
zero in the fstab entries.
This has lead to the following situation :
when dropping to initramfs shell during boot due to fs errors, we are not
able to run fsck manually
because it is not included in initrd.
fsck should be included regardless of the MNT_PASS value.
[Test Plan]
* change /etc/fstab with PASSNO set to 0 for all entries
* update-initramfs -u
* lsinitramfs that is just generated
* observe that it includes fsck utilities for the filesystems in /etc/fstab.
I.e. fsck.ext4 e2fsck must exist
[Where problems could occur]
* The initramfs size will increase slightly upon upgrade, for the
same initramfs-tools default options & kernel. However, one can
control and remove fsck binaries (or include more of them) by setting
FSTYPE variable in the initramfs settings.
[scope]
this is required for b/f/g
this is fixed already in h and i
