This bu affects me too.

Issue comes just after a fresh net-install of Ubuntu Precise Pangolin
PowerPC.

Since is a fresh install and i even doesn't get the login terminal,
don't know how to check /dev/ptmx perms.

I'm running a custom 2.6.38.8 kernel, no rd and i do have support for
PTYs, also multiple instances of pts.
