There was a recent security update of dbus in precise, which is why this
bug is being noticed now.  Security team, this should get an update in
the security pocket.  Can you look at this?

  upgrade of dbus causes unclean unmount of /

Bug description:
  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.
