A small update was made to 4.4.0-96.119 that dropped the initramfs-tools dependency from the kernel [1]. This had the unfortunate affect of removing the initramfs from ubuntu-minimal and making it unbootable, since we specify the root device via LABEL=. Add the package explicitly alongside the kernel. Also, small fix to pass unit tests [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-azure/+bug/1700972 Change-Id: I57a0f08cd5e082ecdf8dba0ab34fb3062c50836d
ubuntu-minimal
The ubuntu-minimal
element uses debootstrap for
generating a minimal image. In contrast the ubuntu
element
uses the cloud-image as the initial base.
By default this element creates the latest LTS release. The exact
setting can be found in the element's environment.d
directory in the variable DIB_RELEASE
. If a different
release of Ubuntu should be created, the variable
DIB_RELEASE
can be set appropriately.
