This is a very old bug report and mountall is no longer part of the Ubuntu boot process on any supported Ubuntu desktop releases. It is therefore not constructive to ask your question here. Please either file a new bug report if you believe there is a bug in Ubuntu, or ask your question in one of the various Ubuntu support forums such as AskUbuntu.
