[Bug 858122] Re: incomplete migration to /run (shutdown script order has been demolished)

[Eduard Hasenleithner]

As a highly experimental means to get the system back working one can
try to:

sudo mv /etc/rc6.d/S01reboot /etc/rc6.d/S90reboot
sudo mv /etc/rc6.d/S01umountroot /etc/rc6.d/S60umountroot

and do a "sudo reboot" afterwards. Please be aware that the other
scripts remain reordered, but it should be enough to be able to backup
your data. E.g. on halt, the harddisks will not be unmounted properly.

Bug description:
  I had the exact same issue documented as
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/807306
  on upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10. Opening new bug as req.

  Removing the existing /var/run and /var/run/lock and replacing with
  sym links as per comment 76 there fixed it.

  The impact of this was a total lack of system (wireless) networking
  coming up - this gives a >! minute pause during boot, as well as a
  subsequent total failure to be able to log into X (KDE or GNOME
  sessions give a cryptic error related to DBUS).

  I've just run an apt-get update/upgrade after *finally* getting back
  into my new 11.10 beta 2 system, and no updates to the mountall show
  up... therefore I assume this bug is still present.
