Aparently that isn't the case. I'm booting with NFS-root so no initrd and mountall also can't be used. Instead I have an upstart job that mounts /dev and /dev/pts and creates /dev/ptmx (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/1006517) and the error only goes away after restarting upstart, not once /dev/pts + ptmx is available. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/980917 Title: Failed to create pty - disabling logging for job To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/980917/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
