Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid uses kernel version 2.6.32. This was the first kernel version used in Ubuntu
that uses devtmpfs for /dev/.
$ grep DEVTMPFS /boot/config-2.6.32-37-generic
CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y
CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT=y
Your system appears to be missing the /dev/ structures created by the kernel in devtmpfs. Check that the kernel version is 2.6.32 or later.
$ uname -a
