Title: boot fails when a kernel filesystem can't be mounted (e.g., due to a dangling symlink) Status in mountall package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: In 2.15.3 (lucid), and probably later, if I have this in fstab, then the boot locks up: none /srv/chroots/raring-amd64/dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 Looking at the target for the mount: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 2012-11-07 23:05 /srv/chroots/raring-amd64/dev/shm -> /run/shm On the lucid machine, /run/shm does not exist, of course. Changing that to: none /srv/chroots/raring-amd64/run/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 works around the issue. A dangling symlink in fstab should not cause a completely silent failure to boot.
