Bug Description

SRU Information
---------------
This just fixes an obvious typo.

In /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/biosdevname, the line:

cp -p /etc/udev/rules.d/$RUlES $DESTDIR/lib/udev/rules.d/

the variable $RUlES needs to be changed to $RULES (capital "L", not lower case).

Currently, update-initramfs will fail if you have a custom /etc/udev/rules.d/71-biosdevname.rules file.

This is in Ubuntu Server 14.04.3 LTS.

I see the same thing in the file but this is a quite simple fix with a text editor that is easily accomplished if you can say write your own udev rules.
