[Bug 837946] [NEW] Lucid cannot boot from filesystems with multiple signatures

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Having upgraded a Dell PowerEdge from hardy to lucid we found it unable to boot, instead falling to an initramfs with an error that it couldn't find the root filesystem.
blkid -p on the boot device claimed ambivalent results due to multiple filesystem signatures.

Simply removing the (two) incorrect VFAT signatures on the device with
wipefs allowed the system to boot normally.
