Comment 75 for bug 477169

Problem here too, 9.10 on an MSI Wind using wubi. I installed a bunch of recommended updates on Sunday, and next tried to use laptop this morning, only to have the "kernel panic" message (plus two LEDs flashing) and no way of doing anything other than power off. I got to my data by mounting from a VirtualBox install of Ubuntu (thanks for that suggestion), but Sriram's fix at #68 (replacing the initrd.img with one from the VirtualBox Ubuntu) does not fix the issue here.

I don't really follow (therefore am too nervous) to run Mark Abene's instructions; I guess I'll next try the mkinitramfs command as described at http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1317397&page=4 and see if that works.
