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.
