Don't know about LVM, but it certainly does not work with mirrored
disks using MD. The system is unable to boot because it can not find the
UUID before the MD device has been started. So the system just hangs
"waiting for root device..."

Silently converting the root device entry is VERY BAD! Even in a
development branch: You simply can't know enough about the installation
to do it reliably.

So simply ask the user if he wants to convert the entry and don't touch
the rescue entry unless the user has confirmed that the change worked.

udev: 093-0ubuntu7
initramfs-tools: 0.69ubuntu6

Kind regards,
  Dominik
