after updating my Debian box, it ceases to boot with above error. I use kernel 2.6.32. Booting older 2.6.28 seems to run the init process well (but has other issues).
Somebody has an idea what went wrong?

1st check if you've got init in your initrd image if not then run
update-initramfs for 2.6.32 kernel to ensure you've got it.

I suspect problems mounting the root partition. Make sure your fstab and
grub.cfg (or menu.lst, you didn't mention what release you are using)
use UUIDs or LABELs everywhere.

Hi,
yes, there's init in it. But the directory structure of the ramdisc
looks quite different from a 2.6.31 ramdisc on another computer.
Unfortunately I did run update-initramfs -k all, and now even the 2.6.26
kernel refuses to boot. Same error.
>From the recent grml live-distro I copied kernel and modules, so at
least I can boot into my system. Then I installed 2.6.37 via aptitude
and got the same issue. Also, updating the ramdisk the debian-way via
dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.37-1-amd64 did not help.
I conclude then, there's an issue with the update script. (I'm running
Debian sid, btw.)
KR, m

It's grub2 and UUIDs are used; and grub finds the kernel and the ramdisc
file. (If it would not find them, grub would show a different msg.
Already encountered and solved that a while ago when grub had an issue
with wanting "/boot" in the path
I suspect the script that generates the ramdisc to be faulty. See my
other reply here:

And fstab also?

An important piece of information. Which version of libc-bin do you have
installed (dpkg -l libc-bin). If you have 2.11.2-12 you might have run into
[0], but you probably would have mentioned the other symptoms that accompany
that bug as well. As always: It is a good idea to have apt-listbugs installed.

Have you tried running update-initramfs one kernel at a time rather
than "update-initramfs -k all" - and anyway can it be run without "-c"
or "-u"?

Hmm, interestingly only swap and tmp were listed with an UUID. But alas,
it did not work out to list the other partitions with their UUID.
Should I mention that software raid and lvm is used?
