and this is a problem for my Wubi installation, given that the file containing the root filesystem is on a FAT32 partition.
It does not boot !
It worked nicely until 2.6.24-16
Then, I got an update from the update manager end the updated kernel and initramfs image don't boot.
I managed to type a
modprobe -v vfat
at the (initramfs) prompt and found out ther was no vfat module.
Since I was at it I also noticed there no ntfs either.
I can't repot any log because there's no filesystem I can mount, without vfat. Sorry
Thanks

The initramfs lacks vfat support. This means that Wubi users coming from a FAT Windows partition will be able to install (casper has vfat), but they will be left with an unbootable system at the first update-initramfs.
TEST CASE:
Install Ubuntu using Wubi on a Windows FAT partition and install all available updates. Reboot and you will be presented with an initramfs prompt. |
