I also fully agree with Brian in #37, John in #44 and Matthias in #45.

We also have such a problem; we also use a separate /var-partiton as usual.

I feel a little bit mocked. Until now I was very satisfied by Ubuntu, but this problem already has a special dimension!
Why did Canonical introduce Upstart, when it does not work correct in normal use?
When this problem is not solvable, Canonical should go back to the former init solution.
I gladly spend a few seconds more for (correct) booting.
