I was getting the error mentioned in this post on ubuntu 10.04. I upgraded to ubunu 10.10 through software update and again I'm getting this error.
mount: mounts none on /dev/pts failed: Device
Here is the boot log:
IP-Config: no response after 4 secs - giving up
/scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 32: ipconfig: not found

I had purged dropbear, and it looks like some scripts are still remaining. Is it possible to do a clean re-install of initramfs?
EDIT 1:
sudo update-initramfs -u
doesn't solve the issue. Also sudo update-initramfs -c -k all
also doesn't solve the issue.
-
sudo update-initramfs -u
Simple as. Shouldn't be able to hurt anything.
On another note, you should ask whoever packages dropbear to add that to their
postrm
script.From Oli -
I was able to solve the dropbear issue.
I did the following:
- I removed all dropbear related files by using the command:
sudo find / -name dropbear* -exec rm -ri {} \;
- Then I did
sudo update-initramfs -c -k all
- Now only this error remains
mount: mounts none on /dev/pts failed: Device
It looks like there is an obsolete mount entry created by dropbear in the config files which get executed in pre-init stages. If some one could figure out that config file, I would be able to solve the whole issue.
hhlp : do you check your /etc/fstab ?nixnotwin : Yes I did. There is no entry for /dev/pts in fstab.From nixnotwin - I removed all dropbear related files by using the command:
