very bad experience. ubuntu server 14.04 64bit, trying to fresh install
on some older DELL machine (poweredge 1950) with software raid with
separate /boot, swap and /tmp. everything seems to run ok, and after
reboot, grub works ok (except that one has to make fast boot = 0,
otherwise error message, but that is another bug with that save
environment thing not working on raid in grub anyway), but when actually
booting the system, after swap is turned on in second 13 or so, booting
stops, and the machine freezes before the consoles are open, machine not
reachable on the network.

ok, rebooting from CD to rescue, but the network configuration is
totally broken due to some misconfiguration of /etc/resolv.conf
(pointing to ../run/resolvconf/whatever), needing to replace it manually
with resolv.conf that is present while the live CD downloads the apt
packages...

but still system doesn't boot, so finally finding this page, and
manually editing the prerm and post scripts of this terrible libpam-
systemd package, getting the apt-get go through the install, and only
then getting the booting working.

hell with this ubuntu and my lost night! sorry, I am not going to
produce any log files after the machine has been finally installed. no
logfiles were produced anyway, the /target/var/log was just empty files.
