[Bug 784216] Re: /run/udev not writable error message

[UbuntuFlo]

I don't think this problem/bug is solved. It ist still persistent. I tried booting with a Live-Image (2011-06-21) which failed because of the udev error-message.
What I did to be able to boot into Oneiric was to remove /var/run from the Oneiric-partition. This allows me to boot into Oneiric again, if one skips [s] the "/var/run is missing" error-message while booting.

Title:
  /run/udev not writable error message

Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: udev

  I upgraded from natty to oneiric, rebooted a couple times, and noticed
  this error message:

    udevd[79]: error: runtime directory '/run/udev' not writable, for
  now falling back to '/dev/.udev'

  I wasn't able to get logged in with the oneiric kernel, so booted the
  natty kernel (which this bug report was filed with).  Both kernels
  showed the same error message.
