I'm not sure I follow the question. I have a snapshot that I took when the machines would get stuck in portmap, and i have the currently working configuration. Even after many hours I was unable to reproduce the failure from the working setup with the same versions of all packages (i.e. the fix to get the system booting cleared out whatever state that caused it to break in the 1st place), so whatever caused this was likely due to either something special in my setup (there really shouldn't have been anything) or the specific upgrade path I took. Since no-one else has reported this in the past 3 months, it is probably safe to consider it a one-off.
I''ll be happy to try additional tests, but to upgrade the packages in the snapshot to a working configuration, I need to fix the issue upgrade then reintroduce it and I'm not sure that will actually be valuable, and I have been unable to reintroduce the problem since fixing it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/719143 Title: portmap 6.0.0-1ubuntu2.1 makes nfs boot machine unbootable -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
