I've ran into this problem with an OpenVZ virtualized guest system. After
upgrading from openSUSE 11.4 to 12.1 I've got the same error message.
"Cannot read input: bad stream or EOF."
The problem was a the missing "/dev/tty" device. Instead of an character device
I found an empty regular file.
# ls -l /dev/tty
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 26 11:03 /dev/tty
So I removed that file and created the right character device again.
# rm /dev/tty
# mknod /dev/tty c 5 0
# ls -l /dev/tty
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 5, 0 Jan 26 12:16 /dev/tty
Happy days! Everything is back to normal.
PS: I'm not hundred percent convinced that this is reproducible.
