** Description changed: I used LXC on this machine. Therefore I had to add a cgroup mount and added the recommended line none /cgroup cgroup defaults 0 0 to /etc/fstab. This results in an unbootable system after upgrade to Oneiric. Apparently the boot just stops when it comes to mounting the entries in /etc/fstab. I would expect that either a) the system doesn't hang when this is added to /etc/fstab b) on upgrade the package detects this condition and removes/comments the according line in /etc/fstab so that the system is still bootable. + + SRU Justification: + 1: Impact: failure to boot! + 2: Development fix: don't start cgroup-lite if cgroups are mounted by fstab + 3: Stable fix: same as development fix + 4: Test case: + a. add cgroup entry to /etc/ftab, i.e. + mkdir /cgroup + echo "cgroup /cgroup cgroup defaults 0 0" > /etc/fstab + b. install cgroup-lite + c. reboot + 5: Regression potential: if the patch were wrong, we might end up with cgroup-lite + not mounting cgroups when it should.
