I have remarked this as new to give Mr. Remnant or others an opportunity to reexamine this considering the new evidence. ** Changed in: sysvinit (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New -- Boot hangs with "Waiting for /some/mount [SM]" forever. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544223 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

I also confirm this bug. Perhaps of interest; when shown this message for my troublesome filesystem, I pressed S to get on with the boot. I then mounted it from an ssh root shell which worked absolutely fine [using just mount /dump so fstab was used to look up the details], however this was displayed on the console immediately after the mount: mountall: ./ply-boot-client.c:178: ply_boot_client_connect: Assertion '!client->is_connected' failed. General error mounting filesystems. A maintenance shell will now be started. CONTROL-D will terminate this shell and reboot the system. [And a root shell was started on the console, apparently, although getty just took over again when I tried to do anything with it, oddness] -- Boot hangs with "Waiting for /some/mount [SM]" forever. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544223 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

I confirm this bug, I am aso affected. I have two partitions, including /home, which are ext4 on lvm and I randomly get the "Waiting for /home [SM]" at boot. -- Boot hangs with "Waiting for /some/mount [SM]" forever. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544223 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
[Bug 544223] Re: Boot hangs with "Waiting for /some/mount [SM]" forever.
You missed the second part of the original report, which also affects me. That is, perfectly valid entires in fstab are hanging up with this problem and mount without issue in recovery mode. In my case, I have a second disk (EXT4 on LVM on LUKS) which mounts to /backup. The LUKS crypt is unlocked with a key in /root. This exact setup worked without issue on Karmic but fails with "waiting for" about 50% of the time. While the first example may be expected behavior, the second is not.

This is the expected behaviour. If you have an invalid or old entry in your /etc/fstab file, the system will not boot because it's waiting for that file - or for you to tell it what to do. At this prompt, you could have pressed "S" to skip that entry and continue booting or "M" to drop to a shell to fix the problem yourself. (There is a bug open to replace [SM] with explanatory text) ** Changed in: sysvinit (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- Boot hangs with "Waiting for /some/mount [SM]" forever. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544223 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
