Bug#310678: latest kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686 left system in unbootable state

["Michael Setzer" <michael.setzer@celeborn.de>]

Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686
Version: 2.6.8-16
Severity: critical
Justification: cannot boot anymore

After upgrading my Sid with root on LVM with the latest kernel-image this
morning I cannot boot anymore. It gives me messages on the boot console like

[...]
device-mapper: 4.1.0-ioctl (2003-12-10) initialised: dm@uk.sistina.com
No program "vgchange" found for your current version of LVM
SGI XFS with ACLs, security attributes, realtime, large block numbers, no
debug enabled
SGI XFS Quota Management subsystem
pivot_root: No such file or directory
/sbin/init: 432: cannot open dev/console: No such file
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init

If you need more information do not hesitate to contact me.
