Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

Recently, I think with initramfs-tools 0.92bubuntu32, which notes a
change of commandline tools from klibc utilities to busybox, I notice
many messages declaring that sleep finds '0.1' to be an invalid number
during early boot.

Sure enough, grepping /usr/share/initramfs-tools/ reveals a couple of
'/bin/sleep 0.1' invocations.

It looks like the busybox sleep only supports sleeping for integer
numbers of seconds.
