David, do you still have the complete screen output by any chance?

udev's postinst already calls update-initramfs -u. I wonder which kernel you were running at the time when you did the update, was it 2.6.35-22 or 2.6.32-26? I suppose it was .35, since you said that .32 didn't boot.

If you do "sudo update-initramfs -u -k all", does 2.6.32-26 boot then? I'm hesitant to add that to udev's postinst, though, since I don't really want to touch other kernels (it might actually break them). The problem here is that you already fell into the "breaks initramfs" trap. I'm pretty sure that the update here will prevent people from falling into it in the first place, but so far we do nothing to repair it after the fact.
