Just a heads up, on some daedalus servers we get this error while
running "apt-get dist-upgrade":
/etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools:

It looks like the growroot hook fails to find /usr/bin/grep, as it is
still on /bin. Installing usrmerge or if it's not viable symlinking
/usr/bin/grep to /bin/grep fixes this.
