Thanks, it also turned out that when I upgraded from Ubuntu 9.10 to
Ubuntu 10.04 it replaced my own /sbin/installkernel so this was likely
another issue. My /sbin/installkernel changes allow for easy initramfs
installation on Debian/Ubuntu but my patches have been ignored my the
maintainer.

But anyway I also now get another boot failure with:

mount: mounting /dev on /root/dev failed: No such file or directory
mount: mounting /sys on /root/sys failed: No such file or directory
