Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: plymouth
I have a upgraded my test Ubuntu desktop VM to Lucid beta 1, but it now
won't boot. One of the main deviations from stock Karmic was addition of
open-vm-tools. The VM was previously installed as Ubuntu 9.04 and
upgraded cleanly to 9.10
The GUI behaviour is the start of a normal boot but then an
indefinitely-looping boot throbber animation. On a text console I eventually
get this text (retyped):
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
ROOT: clean, 165708/1253376 files, 1235456/5012272 blocks
mount: unknown filesystem type 'vmhgfs'
mountall: mount /mnt/hgfs [511] terminates with status 32
mountall: Filesystem could not be mounted: /mnt/hgfs
init: plymouth main process (294) killed by SEGV signal
As a result I'm inferring that there is a bug in plymouth. I suspect
that I can clear this by booting from a Lucid LiveCD and then editing
/etc/fstab but might instead choose a reinstall with the stable release.
