Please use the commands from comment #22.  It's likely that this is the
fix that will be implemented in Ubuntu.

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.
