Bug#582002: Modules not loading in the proper order (initramfs-tools: s390 architecture)

[Stephen Powell <zlinuxman@wowway.com>]

I just tried a couple of things.  First, I thought this might be
related to the new dependency-based boot sequencing.  I tried
adding the line

   CONCURRENCY=none

to /etc/default/rcS to disable parallel booting.  But it didn't
do the trick.  I then rebuilt the initial RAM filesystem and re-ran
the boot loader after making the above change.  It still didn't
fix the problem.  Then I booted the old kernel.  It booted just fine.
But when I rebuilt the initial RAM filesystem for the old kernel with

   update-initramfs -uk 2.6.32-3-s390x

and re-ran the boot loader, then the old kernel wouldn't boot either.
So this is not related to the kernel.  It is definitely related to the
new version of initramfs-tools.
