Public bug reported:
After installation of Ubuntu using netboot
(ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/installer/amd64/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz+mini.iso)
image with lilo as boot loader and non-standard root partition (encrypted)
system can not boot - it can not mount root device. Busybox is unavailable.
Some googling and analysing of boot process have shown that initrd option is
missing in lilo.conf so initrd.img can not be loaded, so init scripts can not
be executed.
