Richard - I edited my above comment to clarify. That workaround is not an attempt to fix boot on any systems.

To anyone that is experiencing boot issues, please open a separate bug with your journal logs and dmesg logs. The "mtd device must be supplied (device name is empty)" error is not the cause of your boot issues, and should be ignored. The reason you all are seeing this error message is that `systemd-pstore.service` is trying to recover kernel crash data from `/sys/fs/pstore` *after* a kernel crash. It happens that the mtdpstore module cannot be loaded, but systemd-pstore.service (and the rest of the system) will happily move along without it.
