 since you say thin clients, is that LTSP, some
 local thin client image
 on the client device
 or what kind of setup are you running there ? looks
 very much like the installArchives() functiopn
 (wherever that comes
 from) is doing the
 update inside a chroot and forgot/failed to
 mount /dev, /sys and /proc

Hi Oli,

thank you for the reply.
No, I am afraid it's a personal custom-made version, not LTSP.
I've followed the thin-client vanilla installation from the ubuntu site and
adapted parts so that it would fit my clients' needs.
Server is an ubuntu 14.04 X64 and thin clients boot from PXE
and run Ubuntu 12.04 x86
