I'm going to add something related to this which is also interesting: if I set bootwait as an attribute for /dev/sda6, the home dir, then the OS hangs at boot time in one of two ways
1. After printing out fsck /dev/sda6 clean it hangs at the console, not crashed, just nothing happening 2. The ubuntu logo appears and then One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted /home:waiting for /dev/disk/by-uuid/16165661-0a16-4caa-968a-84e5ea299900 Press ESC to enter a recovery shell Two possibilities * the disk isn't coming up * mount by UUID is failing to work. (oh, and the recovery shell doesnt come up with I hit ESC, but I consider that a third order problem) -- boot process isn't paused while fsck runs on partition: boot process is completed with fsck running in the background preventing partition from mounting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
