[Bug 1180880] [NEW] Crash when starting oem-config on Ubuntu Server 12.04 amd64.

[Tobin Davis]

Public bug reported:

After installing Ubuntu Server 12.04 (and 12.04.2) AMD64 edition, then
running oem-config-prepare after post-install  updates and rebooting,
the system hangs during reboot.  Adding debug-oem-config doesn't produce
any new information.  Recovery only possible by booting in rescue mode
from the installation cd (or bootable USB) then removing /var/lib/oem-
config/run and rebooting.
