This is no solution, but a workaround :)
I could not find the other thread where this is talked about.
What solved it for me is add a script containing this to the Ubuntu class:
$ROOTCMD umount /var
$ROOTCMD mkdir /var/run
$ROOTCMD mount /var
I remember there is some strange comment in one of ubuntu's init scripts
that even says, that someone must create this directory, because they
use tmpfs for var run, but nobody actually does - it's somewhere in the
installer where this happens - and for me, also an upgrade from breezy
to dapper failed horribly, or gave me bad resulkts because of this.
