Hello,
We worked through this issue out-of-band from this bug. The issue was apparmor. It was not fully removed, it was sticking around in the initramfs after a reboot. A post [1] at the ubuntuforums resolved the issue of removing apparmor with the following steps:
* apt-get purge apparmor
* rm -rf /etc/apparmor*
* update-initramfs -u
* reboot
I am going to close this out now.
