[Bug 358654] Re: udevadm trigger is not permitted while udev is unconfigured

LL Phillips: You might want to see

 for StewartM's step-by-step solution if you have previous kernel images
that you can reboot from.

If you do not have a previously working kernel, you might have to do
what Andrux101 has suggested at

http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8079302&postcount=12

and what Aymeric Mansoux has also suggested above. Be sure to prepend
sudo to the relevant commands.

In any case, here is what I did:

1. Boot from Live CD. Go into console mode [Ctrl-Alt-F1] or fire up a
terminal.

2. sudo mkdir /media/newroot

3. sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/newroot

(My root partition is at /dev/sda1; change /dev/sda1 to suit your case.)

4. sudo chroot /media/newroot

5. sudo update-initramfs -u -k all

(the "all" argument is a bit of bravado since I did not know what
exactly it would do. If in doubt, try "2.6.32-24-generic" instead of
"all".)

6. Reboot without Live CD.

It is a great shame that this bug has resurfaced after a kernel image
update.

FWIW, my most recent kernels are:

2.6.32-24-generic

and

2.6.32-24-preempt

in case it is one and not the other theta has triggered this problem.

I appeal for an early closure of this problem.  Thanks.
