Bug has gone away.
I did a dist-upgrade last night on my laptop, and it updated a big list
of things, including the kernel to 2.6.27.2 (package linux-
image-2.6.27-2-generic). When I rebooted with this new kernel everything
worked.
To confirm if it was the old kernel that was at fault, I rebooted with
the offending 2.6.27.1.1 kernel. That worked as well, and I have no idea
why. My first thought was that there was some other, non kernel package
at fault, but if that was the case, then why did the 2.6.26-5 kernel
boot OK.
Perhaps the 2.6.27.* series of kernels had a dependency on another
package (udev or suchlike?) that was broken for a time, but the 2.6.26.*
kernel did not have that dependency so was unaffected.
Anyway, you should probably mark this bug as invalid or suchlike, seeing
as I am no longer able to reproduce this.
