Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mountall
I have just upgraded from Ubuntu Karmic to Ubuntu Lucid.
I have a system that has a few LUKS file systems running (e.g. home and swap),
so that during the boot process a password is requested and it takes a few
seconds until all LUKS devices are opened and mounted.
With karmic this went all fine.
Now after the upgrade to lucid, mountall does not seem to be able to
cope with my setup and terminates with an ABRT signal which makes the
init process stop and fall back to the root command prompt (no GUI yet
available). If I enter "mountall" again manually on the root command
prompt, then the system finishes booting and runs without further
problems.
With mountall version 2.14 the only way to get my system running is to manually
enter "mountall" on the root command prompt - as described above.
With mountall version 2.13, I also get dumped to the root command prompt, but a
few seconds later the system finishes booting without manual interaction from
my side. So I will stay with 2.13 until this ugly bug is fixed.
The error messages that I get before getting dumped to the root command prompt
are:
> mountall: ./ply_boot_client.c:451: ply_boot_client_process_pending_request:
> Assertion ply_list_get_length failed.
> init: mountall main process killed by ABRT signal
Also I get the error message "could not write bytes: Broken pipe" a few
times, but I'm not sure if this is related to my problem.
