Thanks for the quick response. I followed https://linuxconfig.org/how-
to-configure-dracut-initramfs-on-ubuntu-26-04 to use dracut to re-
generate initrd.img. It re-created the ones under /boot, i.e.
/boot/initrd.img, however, it doesn't re-generate
/boot/firmware/current/initrd.img, which makes my setup still not
working. Is there any Raspberry Pi specific way to use the dracut to
generate the initrd.img?
For details, I simply add a file to /etc/dracut.conf.d/ with the content
```
add_dracutmodules+=" lvm "
```
and then run the command `sudo dracut -f --regenerate-all`.
Please advise. Thanks.

Title:
Ubuntu 26.04 flash-kernel db is not update-to-date
Status in flash-kernel package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I have a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B device and yesterday I installed
Ubuntu 26.04 on it. initramfs-tools and flash-kernel packages fail to
install (more accurately, they did get installed, but failed at
configure step), reporting my device is not recognized. I rolled it
back to my original Ubuntu 24.04 so I can no longer run commands to
collect detailed information.
By digging into it, the flash-kernel package on Ubuntu 26.04 doesn't
ship with the latest database, while Ubuntu 24.04 does.
The file in question is /usr/share/flash-kernel/db/all.db, on Ubuntu
24.04 it does contain devices Raspberry Pi 4B; on Ubuntu 26.04, it is
still the old version.
Please update the package on Ubuntu 26.04 otherwise I can't run
update-initramfs properly to add LVM support in the initrd.img (I put
the rootfs in LVM, and everything works fine for Ubuntu 24.04).
