This appears to be a duplicate of bug #654545. Unfortunately, as Ubuntu 12.04 is in maintenance mode, it is unlikely that anyone will fix this bug now in that release given that it's being brought up as an issue 3 years after release when there is a newer LTS available. I would recommend upgrading affected systems to 14.04 LTS instead. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 654545 mountall does not honor nobootwait flag on /var/* and /usr/* filesystems -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mountall in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1473010 Title: Problems with NFS and iSCSI mounts under /usr and /var on 12.04 Status in mountall package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The logic in mountall.c forces the system to wait for all mounts within /usr and /var before continuing the boot process. Sometimes, networked filesystems are mounted within these directories. Because the services that support networked filesystems aren't necessarily started when mountall runs, this can cause the boot process to hang. This has been fixed for Ubuntu 14.04 (mountall 2.53) by allowing the 'nobootwait' flag to be set even for filesystems within /usr and /var, allowing the administrator to specify which filesystems can be ignored. We only have problems with networked filesystems mounted under /usr and /var; elsewhere they are fine (as the system will skip waiting for them by default). I'd like to request a backport of the code from 2.53, which permits the use of 'nobootwait' on filesystems under /usr and /var, onto 2.36 for Ubuntu 12.04.
