I forgot yo tell you to try to use the newer mkinitrd to make your boot
image, that would have probably been the easiest solution.

The root cause of this with the upgrade is the kernel requires does not
specify the newer version of minitrd. So doing any type of upgrade is a
hit and miss. If one upgrades mkinitrd before hand it will likely play
nice.
