This bug is being reported to happen also after a clonezilla based installation for Trusty.
""" The issue with /tmp will timeout and continue to boot, / will hand the boot up unless there is some user intervention to continue the boot. The work around I mentioned came from a suggestion in the ‘askubuntu’ link listed below. What we did was modify /etc/grub.d/10_linux changing ‘ro’ to ‘rw’, but with the thought that this is just a temp patch with possible (unknown) downstream impact. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1308152 (can't boot from kernel 3.13.0.24 after upgrade to ubuntu 14.04 LTS but able to boot with kernel 3.11.0.20). http://askubuntu.com/questions/453411/ubuntu-14-04-not-booting-after-error-message-tmp-could-not-be-mounted Rebooting the system to get to the boot menu, I used the 'e' option to modify the parameters changing 'ro' to 'rw' as suggested in the 2nd thread. This temporary change allowed the system to boot.
