[Bug 510415] Re: Lucid mountall can cause unexpected hangs

I think I have the same bug/issue. Problem: On boot quite often * it just hangs at the blue kubuntu splash screen with dots moving. Just sits there. Has not crashed, because a Ctrl-Alt-Delete does an ordered shutdown and restart. No other prompts/etc on screen - just splash screen - cannot swap

OK. Just did some testing: Warm-reboots - seems to start OK. Cold-boot hangs * at splash screen - tried pressing ´m´ and ´S´ - nothing happens. Cannot change to other consoles - hitting Ctrl-Alt-Del initiates restart and suddenly i can access other console again (but not login as no time

There is a serious error in mountall, I think. The upgrade from hardy to lucid works fine on the first look. But after editing /etc/fstab my system hangs without an error message. The only change was a little bit formatting for a better overview on the mount options. When I found this thread, I

Indeed. This is not user friendly behaviour. I have had the splash screen truned off for as long as I can remember, because that is supposed to give me MORE information if things go wrong. This idiotic change actually does the opposite. Totally unacceptable. -- Lucid mountall can cause

Well, guess what, this happened to me, too. After having added my new phone to fstab (as a user mount), the system just hung in the middle of the boot process. Fsck found my root, /dev/sda2 to be clean, and then...nothing. No message about any key shortcuts, no message about waiting for

I agree with some of the voices raised here. I just edited fstab, screwing up the device name of an unimportant data partition, and now I'm left with a non-booting server and no clear indication of what went wrong (well, until I found this). I think perhaps other than the root partition, a flag

Florian, I'm sorry that you had the problems you did recovering your system after changing a partition UUID, but that doesn't appear to be related to this bug report. Mountall was fixed well before the lucid release to provide progress information on the screen about unmountable filesystems; if
