It doesn't seem like this was fixed, or maybe it has regressed, but I'm having the same issue with 14.10, when a security update takes the kernel from 3.16.0-23.24 to 3.16.0-31.43.
I happened to use Universal-USB-Installer to create my persistent live USB copy of Lubuntu, then I used gparted to make a larger casper-rw ext2 partition than the 4GB FAT32 file limit, but that probably doesn't matter. I get the cryptsetup warnings like everyone else, but that's only a canary in a coalmine, as you can simply remove cryptsetup, and the OS *still* won't boot after installing the updates that cause this. I also tried Colin Watson's workaround before running the update, and this did *not* help. So, to reproduce the bug, all I have to do in Software Updater is put a check, under security updates, next to "Generic Linux Kernel Image" and then run the update -- also, any other update that *depends* on the kernel image being updated also causes the issue. On restart, I get ""(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system", and it won't boot into Lubuntu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/932663 Title: kernel upgrade failed on a USB live system created by usb-creator To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/932663/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
