I have migrated an old old ubuntu server from a KVM server into proxmox kernel 2.6.
On boot the network interface will not come up. I checked that it detected the device and it has as eth0 but cannot raise the interface because the tempfs on /dev/shm is not mounted.
The error you actually see is ifup
The run folder is linked to /dev/shm/network which doesn't exist.
I can't find anything useful in the syslog but I know that if I boot the system on KVM installed on Ubuntu it works, with pretty much the same virtual hardware. I think this type of question is beyond the scope of the forum but someone might know if there is anything obvious to check.
