Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: initscripts
I had a Feisty installation with /home on an xfs filesystem.
Today I've changed the APT repositories to Gutsy, and dist-upgraded.
After rebooting, I've discovered that /home is not mounted and I cannot
mount it because lots of processes (including init) are using the /home
directory so the mount point is busy.
I've removed the "quiet" and "splash" options from /boot/grub/menu.lst
and rebooted to see what was going on during bootup. When the /home
filesystem is about to be mounted, I can see the following messages:
* Mounting local filesystems....
mount: /dev/hda6 already mounted or /home busy
Earlier on the console, the XFS filesystems passes through filesystem
checking successfully:
* Checking file systems...
fsck 1.40.2 (12-Jul-2007)
/sbin/fsck.xfs: XFS file system.
Replaying journal..
Reiserfs journal ...etc.etc (I have a reisefs partition over there, too).
...
Filesystem is clean.
