See e.g.: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=756312 Its fixed in xenials version (latest LTS) but fails in current supported LTS trusty to boot. Please backport those simple fix: if [ -w /sys/kernel/uevent_helper ]; then echo > /sys/kernel/uevent_helper fi and maybe add udevadm settle || true at the end to support kernels without uevent_helper enabled.
