Public bug reported: Binary package hint: sysvinit
After updating (which I notice pulled in the latest initscripts package). My system failed to boot with "Waiting for /some/mount [SM]". In my case it was an old partition that no longer existed, I was able to log into recovery mode and remove the offending fstab entry. Previously it was just silently failing and continuing to boot. Another user is reporting the same issue except with an LVM home partition that does automatically mount find in recovery mode. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9009005 A possible temporary work around might be to remove the fstab entry and mount manually in /etc/rc.local Description: Ubuntu lucid (development branch) Release: 10.04 ProblemType: Bug Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Mar 23 02:05:53 2010 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" - Beta amd64 (20100318) NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: initscripts 2.87dsf-4ubuntu16 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_AU.UTF-8 SHELL=/usr/bin/zsh ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-16.25-generic SourcePackage: sysvinit Uname: Linux 2.6.32-16-generic x86_64 ** Affects: sysvinit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug lucid -- Boot hangs with "Waiting for /some/mount [SM]" forever. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544223 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
