Is /tmp mounted "noexec"?  Just Don't Do It[tm].  The system will break
in hideously crazy, suprising ways.  BTW, this is also valid for the
filesystem hosting whatever directory $TMPDIR (and $TEMP, $TMP...)
points to.

Mounting /tmp "noexec" is not really supported, regardless of whether it
used to work in the past or not.


If that's the case, here's a rough idea on how to fix the breakage:

1. fix the /tmp definiton on /etc/fstab, it must not be "noexec".

2. assuming you actually managed to boot, run as root:

   mount /tmp -o remount,exec
   update-initramfs -u

   that should create a working initramfs for the next boot.
