I too am unable to recreate this problem - dbus should certainly not be
running in recovery mode because dbus is 'start on local-filesystems',
but that event will not have been emitted since mountall is not run in
recovery mode.

Can you confirm you are entering recovery mode from the grub menu
(Advanced options -> recovery)?

Can you also check the following:

1) Enter recovery mode.
2) Select the root shell option.
3) Run "set|grep UPSTART".

What you should see is:

UPSTART_EVENTS=recovery
UPSTART_INSTANCE=
UPSTART_JOB=friendly-recovery

Can you also check that you don't have an /etc/init/dbus.override and
that your /etc/init/dbus.conf is unmodified - running 'apport-collect -p
upstart 1348784' will do this for you.

Attaching the output of 'ps -efwww' and 'initctl list' from recovery
mode could also be useful.

Title:
  thermald prevents unmounting /dev/sda1 in recovery mode

Status in “thermald” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 14.10 dev with thermald 1.2-1 and if the system is
  started in the recovery mode it is not possible to unmount /dev/sda1
  because thermald is running. Interestingly lsof hasn't even showed
  that something has a file descriptor on /dev/sda1 open but executing
  "stop thermald" has worked as a workaround.
