Comment 37 for bug 430272

Hi I've been having the same problem.

I just went through the process of booting from the live cd and sudo chroot /mnt , apt-get update and apt-get upgrade.

Ubuntu 9.10 is still hanging at scripts/init-bottom.

this is the error I get.

udevd[813] inotify-add-watch(6,(null),10) failed: bad address

terminate this shell and retry.ted with status 10-udev-default.rules:4t

also when I issue the apt-get upgrade command I get the following error:

Errors were encounted while processing linux-image-2.6.31-10 generic
grub-pc
grub2
E:sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code(1)

an additional error went something like the following:

can not write log, openpty() failed.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
