Public bug reported:

When I include the line:

//some-network-path     /mnt/backup          cifs
rw,acl,user_xattr,_netdev,password=     0 0

in my fstab, ubuntu fails to load in recovery mode.

I select the recovery mode option from grub. Shell prompt begins to
load. It reaches the menu with options like "continue to boot as normal"
"repair installed packages" "login as root" or whatever but then hangs -
does not accept keyboard input. Bug seems to occur even when //some-
network-path exists (i.e. I can mount the drive successfully using
'mount -a').

Output from uname:
ubuntu4366:~> uname -a
Linux ubuntu4366 2.6.31-19-generic #56-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 28 02:39:34 UTC 2010 
x86_64 GNU/Linux

Output from lsb_release:
ubuntu4366:~> lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 9.10
Release:        9.10

It seems to occur also with linux 2.6.31-17 and linux 2.6.31-15

Regards,
Chris
