Ok fixed both of these issues and pushed the fixes to Trusty for testing. Will be in the next upload there.

The bug is that the initrd.img symlink is absolute, since the test_relative() perl function checks for the presence of the initrd.img file, which is created after the postinst scripts runs, so it assumes a absolute symlink is needed. This isn't the case for the vmlinuz file, since it is shipped. --- ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: i386 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: lightdm 1818 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=921107b8-2551-4cc2-9a4f-7d63bdf8dbf5 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-11-01 (3 days ago) InstallationMedia: Edubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release i386 (20131016.1) IwConfig: lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. lxcbr0 no wireless extensions.
