/etc/nologin appearing on upgrade
I was in the middle of upgrading to today's unstable when my machine became
unstable. The X server became confused and stopped accepting keyboard input
for unknown reasons.
When I tried logging in over the network via ssh I discovered that
/etc/nologin had somehow appeared and init was not functioning correctly.
Due to a misbehaving init I had to press the reset button to fully regain
control of my machine.
Does anyone have any idea of what the cause of this could be?
