Title:
  initramfs-tools 0.140ubuntu1 causes failure to boot due to /usr/share
  /initramfs-tools/init not being executable

Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  After updating the initramfs-tools 0.140ubuntu1, the system no longer
  boots.  Instead, the busybox shell is started.  The error says that
  "/init" cannot be started due to error -13.

  In investigated and figured out that the error occurs because the
  /usr/share/initramfs-tools/init script is not executable.  It was
  executable in previous initramfs-tools versions.  "chmod +x"ing it and
  rebuilding the initramfs works around the problem.
