I encountered this issue while upgrading from 10.04 to 12.04.1 on 64-bit
machine. Apparently the upgrade scripts messed up the /var/run and /run, making
each symlink to the other.
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Sep 7 13:57 /var/run - /run
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Sep 5 18:13 /run - /var/run
The workaround in Comment #9 worked fine and allowed me to boot Precise.
However this is a difficult to debug bug and it should likely be marked
as 'High' importance.
