@steve The reason why it fails on Lucid is that those line are placed BEFORE the $rootmnt gets mounted as opposed to AFTER the mount for the other distro.
It is like that because Lucid runs an older version of the package (1:2.0.1-1) compared to 1:2.0.1-2 for maverick and natty and 1:2.0.2-1 for Oneiric. What I have done is to have the kdump.initramfs for Lucid be identical to the ones of the other versions (merely move those lines near the end), recreated the debdiff and rebuilt a test package with it. It now works correctly on Lucid too. But I'm questioning the validity of those steps : shouldn't we just provide 1:2.0.1-2 on Lucid just like for maverick and Natty ? If not, then I have the debdiff ready for upload so a respin of the lucid-proposed can be done.
