[Bug 358654] Re: udevadm trigger is not permitted while udev is unconfigured

[Skip VerDuin]

I seem to be living in a "house of cards" here...   I began 3 days ago
with this bug but made the not-so-good choice to work backwards starting
from the end "... does not exist" message -- see question #125176.  My
twist is to find /dev/sdb partition table garbled-or-missing.  Today I
fail to boot a newly downloaded live 10.04.1 to apply the fix above #31
by Chandra [specifically it seems to begin booting then fail prior to
any message]. None of the previous boot options function from the grub
menu on HD.  PXE boot options also yield different [than a week ago]
results from various OS choices.  In short -- 3 days of no joy...

Summary:
The machine is a white box - 32bit workstation built on a dual-AMD server mobo.  The file system is built on 2 SATA drives in BIOS RAID 0 & LVM.  It was assembled a year ago and Fedora 12 was the OS.  Three months ago the ubuntu 10.04 LTS was added via network install option in a new LV for dual-boot purposes - dual boot was soon abandon and only 10.04 ran 24-7.  The boot failure on 9/11 following safe-upgrade is the first problem encountered.  It's a killer.

I now view my problem as one of finding a successful live OS option to
apply a Chandra-like fix.  What makes my system so vulnerable remains a
mystery to me.  I expect to run out of options [patience(?)] after a
couple more days and resort to re-install.  In the mean time I'll
provide anything that might be helpful to others...
