** Description changed: This bug has been noticed after the introduction of the fix of (LP: #1682637) in Bionic. I have notice a block in Bionic when choosing 'Enable Network' option in recovery mode on different bionic vanilla system and I can reproduce all the time. I also asked colleagues to give it a try (for a second pair of eye on this) and they have the same result as me. Basically, when choosing 'Enable Network' it get block or lock. If we hit 'ctrl-c', then a shell arrive and the system has network connectivity. Here's what I find while enabling "systemd.debug-shell=1" from vtty9 : # pstree systemd-+-bash---pstree |-recovery-menu---network---systemctl---systemd-tty-ask |-systemd-journal .... # ps root 486 473 0 08:29 tty1 00:00:00 /bin/systemd-tty-ask-password-agent root 473 486 0 08:29 tty1 00:00:00 systemctl start dbus.socket root 486 283 0 08:29 tty1 00:00:00 /bin/sh /lib/recovery- mode/options/network Additionally, systemd-analyze blame: "Bootup is not yet finished. Please try again later" "systemctl list-jobs" is showing a 100 jobs in 'waiting' state + The only 'running' unit is friendly-recovery.service : + 52 friendly-recovery.service start running + + The rest are all "waiting". My understanding is that "waiting" units + will be executed only after those which are "running" are completed. + Which explain why the "ctlr-c" allow the boot to continue. + + All the systemd special unit important at boot-up are waiting. + 7 sysinit.target start waiting + 3 basic.target start waiting + ..... + Seems like systemd is not fully initialise in 'Recovery Mode' and doesn't allow any 'systemctl start' operation without password/passphrase request, which I suspect is hidden by the recovery- mode menu.
