Every call to update-initramfs ended stuck on the first line:
# update-initramfs -u
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.5.0-18-generic
[stuck here]
Looking at the running processes gave me this:
# ps aux | grep initram

--color=auto initram
Suspecting that something was wrong with the FRAMEBUFFER option in
initramfs, I removed the « FRAMEBUFFER=y » of my config file.
Then, I was able to use again update-initramfs without getting stuck and
to upgrade my kernel.
Thanks.
