with windows cifs not supporting vers=1.0 anymore it is crucial that the crypto kernel modules are included in the initial ram images. Otherwise it is not possible to mount any cifs volumes from the ram image.

CIFS is very handy when PXE booting Ubuntu LTS Desktop live from Windows OSs as Serva does it here. http://vercot.com/~serva/an/NonWindowsPXE3.html The inclusion of des_generic.ko and md4.ko within initrd.lz would avoid the need of loading manually made complementary initrd files. I hope you guys can add these 2 files for 12.04.3 considering this is an LTS.
