Title:
  "non-accessable symlink" errors when using aufs-shaddowed read-only
  root filesystem

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I updated my pxeboot/nfs system to 10.10, several applets failed to load, and the log files contained the following messages:
  Oct 19 22:25:58 computer08 kernel: [   66.326808] non-accessible hardlink creation was attempted by: gconfd-2 (fsuid 1000)
  Oct 19 22:26:05 computer08 kernel: [   73.491138] non-accessible hardlink creation was attempted by: gconfd-2 (fsuid 114)
  Oct 19 22:26:05 computer08 kernel: [   73.580608] non-accessible hardlink creation was attempted by: gdm-session-wor (fsuid 1000)
  Oct 19 22:26:09 computer08 kernel: [   77.545565] non-accessible hardlink creation was attempted by: indicator-apple (fsuid 1000)
  Oct 19 22:26:09 computer08 kernel: [   77.670861] non-accessible hardlink creation was attempted by: indicator-apple (fsuid 1000)

  Setting kernel.yama.protected_nonaccess_hardlinks=0 allows everything
  to work.

  The read-only root is configured according to the instructions at
  http://www.logicsupply.com/blog/2009/01/27/how-to-build-a-read-only-
  linux-system . It uses a initramfs script to create a tmpfs, move /,
  and mount the aufs union filesystem on / early in the boot process.
