Title:
  /proc/self/mountinfo:no such file or directory after upgrading from
  9.04 to 9.10

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I updated my Dell inspiron from 9.04 to 9.10 using the Upgrade Manager.  After it was all installed, I re-started, as instructed.  It started to boot, got to the Ubuntu symbol, then gave me the following message:
  init: sreadahead main process (2089) terminated withstatus 1
  mountall:/proc/self/mountinfo:no such file or directory
  mountall: rootfilesystem is not mounted
  init: mountall mainprocess (2079) terminated with status 1
  General error mounting filesystems.
  A maintenance shell will now be started.
  CONTROL-D will terminated this shell and re-try.
  root at dell-desktop:~#

  I tried several times and got the same message each time.  Control-D
  did nothing and I can't enter any commands.  I do have a live 9.10 CD.
  How do I use it to repair the operating system?  I have no idea what
  commands to use or anything, so give me easy to understand
  instructions.
