I'm still experiencing this bug on oneiric.

Title:
  nuking initramfs contents: Kernel panic at boot

Status in “initramfs-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux-source-2.6.22” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  When booting my Ubuntu Gutsy desktop (kernel 2.6.22-14-generic), I
  often get a kernel panic. This happens quite often (almost at every
  boot) and as a result I have to reset the machine multiple times to
  make it boot. But once the system is finally running, it works just
  fine. (I had exactly the same problem with Ubuntu Feisty and hoped the
  upgrade would have fix the problem.)

  The last two messages on the screen are:

  run-init: nuking initramfs contents: Directory not empty
  [24.805436] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

  I can provide more information if required, but I don't know where to
  look.
