[Bug 818177] Re: HP DL380G5 root disk mounted read-only on boot and boot fails

[Stefan Bader]

Just for reference: it was the pkill of udev, that was causing trouble
in tests I did on xen guests. In that case pkill sometimes had to be
redone a few times. And even then there could be even rarer cases where
udev did not seem to be killable at all. But if that was not done
correctly it would leave the initrd not empty and that causes (slightly
overreacting there) a panic.

Bug description:
  After running a do-release-upgrade -d on a natty server, I'm unable to
  boot the machine properly.

  It looks like it doesn't see the local disks anymore.

  I think this looks quite a lot like the debbug linked from here:
