Sorry for status changes, I'm new to launchpad and clicked the wrong link. Also, I have to agree with bl8n8r, it is annoying that an upgrade of Ubuntu results in so many error/warning messages during boot.

[Bug 432360] Re: sreadahead should support separate /usr, /var etc.
I have to concur with bl8n8r, including a package that disallows separate /var, especially on a server, is simply not acceptable. Every time a new Ubuntu comes out, the server version seems to get more and more fragile. I too have this problem and it's cost me many hours of my time the last week, time I could spend doing more productive things than driving 45 minutes to the hosting center because of a package that doesn't like /var being in another mount point. -- sreadahead should support separate /usr, /var etc. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432360 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Why would you include a package (in a server system nonetheless) which doesn't allow you to put /var on a separate partition?

ureadahead supports, as far as it can, separated filesystems - but it cannot support a separate /var Well that's unfortunate because there are very good reasons for having a separate /var and /home, namely that you might want to mount your root filesystem ro, because it should change only occasionally (i.e. updates), whereas /var can be mounted rw.

What is going on? Many people are providing so-called fixes for what? Is this a bug, yes or not? Or is this a problem of configuration (which I doubt)? I have never seen ureadahead errors like these before (I've been using Linux since 2000). So I assume it is a bug introduced in Karmic. Is Ubuntu Karmic going to provide a bug fix release?

I assume this is why ureadahead isn't: # ureadahead -v /var/lib/ureadahead/pack: No such file or directory ureadahead: Error while tracing: No such file or directory And I assume the error while tracing is because the -updates kernel isn't installed on my system since the kernel version is pinned.

[Bug 432360] Re: sreadahead should support separate /usr, /var etc.
With respect, I think there is a problem because the message never goes away (for me) nomatter how many I reboot and no pack files (or any files at all excepting the debugfs dir) ever get generated in /var/lib/ureadahead/. I have / mounted on /dev/sda1 and /home mounted on /dev/sda3. The above recommended change to /etc/init/ureadahead.conf does nothing but change the order of the error messages at boot time. I didn't try the attached patch. For my karmic system at least ureadhead never works.

[Bug 432360] Re: sreadahead should support separate /usr, /var etc.
ureadahead has better support for separate filesystems, when tracing it will generate additional pack files for each of the separate mounts (each one individually optimised) - and uses the mountall-generated mount event to run over those. There's nothing I can do about separate /var though - that's where the pack files have to go, and there's nowhere else sensible (or legal) for them. Frankly, there are bigger problems with /var and boot performance, so it's simply not a concern - if you have separate filesystems, you're not going to get a fast boot. ** Also affects: ureadahead (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: ureadahead (Ubuntu) Status: New = Triaged ** Changed in: ureadahead (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Fix Committed ** Changed in: ureadahead (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium -- sreadahead should support separate /usr, /var etc. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432360 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

you are right. it will create /var/lib/sreadahead/pack, but on the next boot it will not find it.

I had the same issue (/var as a separate filesystem).
