Follow up: I was curious to see what the exit status of the udev.postinst command was, so I ran it again and here is what happened this time!
------------------------- # sh -ex /var/lib/dpkg/info/udev.postinst configure ; echo $? + set -e + update_hwdb + udevadm hwdb --update + chrooted + stat -c %d/%i / + stat -Lc %d/%i /proc/1/root + [ 2304/2 = 2304/2 ] + return 1 + in_debootstrap + [ -d /debootstrap/ ] + return 1 + invoke-rc.d udev restart udev stop/waiting udev start/running, process 11860 + update-initramfs -u update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.16.0-28-generic W: mdadm: the array /dev/md/dymaxion:x with UUID c052a4db:6908e47c:8f2cac48:2b6c1305 W: mdadm: is currently active, but it is not listed in mdadm.conf. if W: mdadm: it is needed for boot, then YOUR SYSTEM IS NOW UNBOOTABLE! W: mdadm: please inspect the output of /usr/share/mdadm/mkconf, compare W: mdadm: it to /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf, and make the necessary changes. + [ -x /etc/init.d/udev ] + update-rc.d udev defaults + [ -x /etc/init.d/udev-finish ] + update-rc.d udev-finish defaults + [ -x /etc/init.d/udevtrigger ] + [ -x /etc/init.d/udevmonitor ] + [ -x /etc/init.d/udev-fallback-graphics ] + [ -x /etc/init.d/lvm2 ] + update-rc.d lvm2 defaults + dpkg-maintscript-helper rm_conffile /etc/init.d/udev-mtab 204-1~ -- configure dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: couldn't identify the package 1 ------------------------- So what's up with that? I did nothing to the system between invocations other than run the "invoke-rc.d udev restart; echo $?" command. Now, I appear to have another problem in that mdadm has now been excluded from the boot file. The root filesystem is indeed mirrored, so I must rebuild this with mdadm. This is a procedure that i am unfamiliar with. I will research it. However, if you can suggest the proper steps to take, that would be appreciated.
