I think I may have run into another issue related to the same bug. While the login loop problem appears to have been fixed, the fix does not seem to have cascaded down to other prompts that one may encounter in special circumstances. In my case, I had an external USB drive connected to my server and this happened to have been powered off (physically) when booting. As expected, the system did not complete the boot process and stopped (momentarily) at the "Enter Ctrl-D etc" prompt to allow repair. Well, it just kept going. I was unable to get in at all and eventually just had to physically reset the box and reconnect power to the USB drive. So the looping that used to happen at the console login persists when dropping to the emergency shell. I will be grateful if anyone else can confirm. Just add a spurious entry to fstab and try to reboot.
