Comment 34 for bug 1325142

very bad experience. ubuntu server 14.04 64bit, trying to fresh install on some older DELL machine (poweredge 1950) with software raid with separate /boot, swap and /tmp. everything seems to run ok, and after reboot, grub works ok (except that one has to make fast boot = 0, otherwise error message, but that is another bug with that save environment thing not working on raid in grub anyway), but when actually booting the system, after swap is turned on in second 13 or so, booting stops, and the machine freezes before the consoles are open, machine not reachable on the network.

ok, rebooting from CD to rescue, but the network configuration is totally broken due to some misconfiguration of /etc/resolv.conf (pointing to ../run/resolvconf/whatever), needing to replace it manually with resolv.conf that is present while the live CD downloads the apt packages...

but still system doesn't boot, so finally finding this page, and manually editing the prerm and post scripts of this terrible libpam-systemd package, getting the apt-get go through the install, and only then getting the booting working.

hell with this ubuntu and my lost night! sorry, I am not going to produce any log files after the machine has been finally installed. no logfiles were produced anyway, the /target/var/log was just empty files.
