I came across this while running 15.04 on a Gryphon Z97 mainboard. I understand what you are saying about the cpio segments, and the initrd seems to be in the correct format, but the kernel isn't recognizing it on boot. So it fails to load the SATA drivers and can't find the root filesystem.
I also noticed that lsinitramfs doesn't show the combined form. If I copy the initrd over to my debian machine running 0.120 it appears to be properly formed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1462788 Title: Initrd is not gzip archive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/1462788/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
