I noticed that ssh to the ts-7400 starts working if I umount /dev/pts and then 
remount it, so I implemented a workaround that does this.

I believe this is happening because the fastboot environment mounts /dev/pts 
before using root_pivot to switch to the root partition on the SD card.
The /dev/pts that is already mounted is therefore not in the current root 
filesystem and applications can't find the entries created in it.

/dev/shm might have a similar problem
