Argh. Indeed, a boot hang could/would happen should you get exec
failures on the ORDER files that are *inside* the initramfs, i.e. if the
file reported as not being executable was something like this:
/var/tmp/mkinitramfs_########/scripts/local-block/ORDER
(and yes, it is /var/tmp and not /tmp as I said... My recollection of
this very obscure issue was slightly corrupted by time :-( )
I failed to notice the path on the ORDER files it was reporting as not
being able to execute, I apologize for that.
