Here's a patch. With the patch, the output is
Error getting directory: Transport endpoint is not connected
Warning (initialization): Error setting default-directory

Subject: [PATCH] Treat unreachable current directory as error
Linux prefixes an unreachable (e.g. unmounted) current directory with
the special string "(unreachable)", cf. Bug#27871. Treat such
directories as error because they wouldn't work anyway.
* src/sysdep.c (emacs_get_current_dir_name_1): Renamed from
emacs_get_current_dir_name.
(emacs_get_current_dir_name): Check for prefix "(unreachable)".
