+
+So this looks really like the convertfs module is simply not included in
+your initrd.
+
+Can you confirm that your grub entry is using the latest kernel and that
+the initrd used is the right one?
+
+ lsinitrd | grep convertfs
+
+This should give you some results.
+
+It just seems like you regenerated the initrd when not booted on the
+latest kernel or that you are using a non-latest initrd.
+
+Either way just work out which kernel+initrd combo you are using and
+regenerate it to include the convertfs module.
+
+Cheers
