Comment 38 for bug 771372

Is this now really fixed in Lucid? As I have mentioned in comment #29 we had applied this update from lucid-proposed and and continue to see this error in /var/log/boot.log:

init: procps (virtual-filesystems) main process (670) terminated with status 255

The initial problem remains the same, the sysctl settings do not get applied in time.

We need to use this workaround in order to get VLAN trunks into Libvirt-managed virtual machines (KVM):

/etc/rc.local:

# At this point automatic startup of libvirt-bin.conf is disabled, we start it manually below
/sbin/sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf
/etc/init.d/networking restart
/etc/init.d/libvirt-bin start
exit 0

This is on Ubuntu 10.04.4, x86_64 on all of our Dell R710 servers.
