[Bug 1058517] [NEW] upgrade of dbus causes unclean unmount of /

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Running on Amazon Web Services AMI ami-057bcf6c (which is the official
release from Ubuntu Availalbe at http://uec-
images.ubuntu.com/releases/precise/release-20120822/ )

upon first start run

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

it will tell you a restart is required when you next log in via ssh

restart the server

try to ssh in again and your keyfile will not work anymore

This is a major problem for AWS users as we can't access a console and
there is no way to reset the keyfile and thus you are locked out of your
server for ever.  I've reproduced this once on a separate instance.
