If I boot using the recovery mode grub menu entry I get to see a bit
more. Before the kernel panic I get:

RAMDISK: gzip image found at block 0
uncompression error
List of all partitions:
0800    312571224 sda driver: sd
  0801    2096451 sda1
  0802 310472190 sda2
0b00   1048575 sr0 driver: sr
No filesystem could mount root, tried ext3 ext2 ext4 fuseblk

That last line implies that jfs was not tried. Why would that be? Something to 
do with the ramdisk uncompression error?
I tested /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-19-generic with a gunzip -tv and it was OK.
