udevadm trigger is not permitted while udev is unconfigured
To fix this we need to do something similar to one of my previous entries on Centos
Boot up a desktop LiveCD and perform the following steps from within a console;
Determine your boot disk, it will usually be /dev/sda1;
sudo fdisk -l
This will produce output like this;
Disk /dev/sda: 8589 MB, 8589934592 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1044 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x000d730c
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 994 7977984 83 Linux
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda2 994 1045 407553 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 994 1045 407552 82 Linux swap / Solaris
The device with the * is the boot disk.
Create a folder in the "ubuntu" users home;
mkdir tmproot
Mount the disk to that folder (change the boot device if yours is not /dev/sda1);
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /home/ubuntu/tmproot
Chroot the mounted disk;
sudo chroot /home/ubuntu/tmproot
Finding the latest installed version of the kernel.
ls /boot
This will produce output like this;
abi-2.6.32-21-generic-pae memtest86+.bin
abi-2.6.32-24-generic-pae System.map-2.6.32-21-generic-pae
System.map-2.6.32-22-generic-pae config-2.6.32-21-generic-pae
System.map-2.6.32-24-generic-pae config-2.6.32-22-generic-pae
config-2.6.32-24-generic-pae vmcoreinfo-2.6.32-21-generic-pae
vmcoreinfo-2.6.32-24-generic-pae grub
initrd.img-2.6.32-21-generic-pae vmlinuz-2.6.32-21-generic-pae
initrd.img-2.6.32-22-generic-pae vmlinuz-2.6.32-22-generic-pae
initrd.img-2.6.32-24-generic-pae vmlinuz-2.6.32-24-generic-pae
Your latest kernel is the one with the highest version number. In my case it is 2.6.32-24-generic-pae
Update initramfs to load the latest kernel;
sudo update-initramfs -u -k 2.6.32-24-generic-pae
There will likely be an error "unable to resolve hostname ubuntu" and a few errors about /proc/mount not existing. These can be safely ignored.
Reboot the system and all should now be good!

Hi Luke, it is hard to tell what the problem is when you don't actually say what command you used to produce that error.
It was after I typed this "sudo chroot /home/ubuntu/tmproot"
Hi, I am going through the same issue. And I get "failed to run command ‘/bin/bash’: No such file or directory" after I type the "sudo chroot /home/ubuntu/tmproot" command.
Thaks in advance for your help
