93. By Dustin Kirkland 

* Functionality backported from Intrepid to Hardy to support booting
  degraded RAID, LP: #290885.
* scripts/functions: Adjust the mountroot failure hooks framework to
  that used in Intrepid, renaming the function so as not to break other
  callers in Hardy
* scripts/local: Add get_fstype() and root_missing() helper functions
  and fix the root_missing loop

92. By Scott James Remnant (Canonical)

Whilst looping for the root filesystem, don't just rely on the existance
of the block device and whether vol_id succeeds on it, but also make
sure that udev is not currently active by calling "settle" on it. This
solves a race where mdadm or devmapper still has a lock on the device,
but the contents are ready which will cause the mount call later to fail.
LP: #244926.

91. By Evan

Add vfat support to the initramfs (LP: #236021).

90. By Agostino Russo

Provide a clearer error on mount failure of the Windows host
filesystem (LP: #226622)

89. By Scott James Remnant (Canonical)

Drop dependency on volumeid, it's shipped by udev again.

88. By Luke Yelavich

* hook-functions: Do not display find error messages if firmware directories
  cannot be found. (LP: #153743)
* scripts/functions: Remove unneeded quotes. These were causing multiple
  mountroot fail hook entries to be run as one command.
* scripts/local: Panic if the root device node cannot be found, or vol_id
  can't identify the volume on the device. This allows mdadm's mountroot fail
  hook to be reliably triggered, as the md device node exists even if the
  array cannot be brought up.
* init: Add 2>&1 to the run-init line at the end of the file, to fix a long
  outstanding bug where init has no stderr.
* scripts/local-premount/resume: Source /scripts/functions, thanks to
  Nikolaus Filus for the patch. (LP: #203429)

87. By Ben Collins

Wow, somehow my fix for 129910 got removed. Re-implement. DO NOT USE -Qb
for framebuffer. We need to ignore blacklist for forced vga= usage.

86. By Jonathan Riddell

Edit scripts/local with patch from
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/wubi/+bug/201750 comment 1
"Cannot remount loopfiles inside of vfat"
"The workaround involves mounting all loopinstallations rw to begin with"
Closes LP: #201750

85. By Tollef Fog Heen

Drop -9 to gzip call in order to save time at a very small size
penalty (< 1%)

84. By Martin Pitt

debian/initramfs-tools.preinst: If /etc/mkinitramfs/initramfs.conf was not
modified, do not copy it over to /etc/initramfs-tools on a dapper->hardy
upgrade, since this causes an unnecessary dpkg conffile prompt.
(LP: #172853)
