Bug Description
When booting my Ubuntu Gutsy desktop (kernel 2.6.22-14-generic), I often get a kernel panic. This happens quite often (almost at every boot) and as a result I have to reset the machine multiple times to make it boot. But once the system is finally running, it works just fine. (I had exactly the same problem with Ubuntu Feisty and hoped the upgrade would have fix the problem.)
The last two messages on the screen are:
run-init: nuking initramfs contents: Directory not empty
[24.805436] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
I can provide more information if required, but I don't know where to look.

I have the same problem on my laptop:
run-init: nuking initramfs contents: Directory not empty
...Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
I am worried that this could screw up my files.
