Oh wow, I think I got it! I cobbled together some physical hardware with a 20G IDE drive and installed as such:
9G phys / 11G logical lvm VG scars LV tmp -> /tmp 2G LV swap LV home -> /home 2G LV opt -> /opt 1G LV var -> /var 2G LV varlog -> /var/log 2G I had to put root on a physical partition because otherwise grub would not install for some reason. This is with a Lucid server b1 x86 cdrom. The system booted perfectly fine, within just a few seconds. No hang and all partitions mounted just fine. I rebooted 4 times and never had a problem. However, I just did an apt-get update + apt-get dist-upgrade and now reboots are haning after seeing 6 of these output on the console: fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2 Seems like a reasonable place for mountall to be the culprit. I will investigate further. However I'd like to know exactly what you've got installed to see the hang. Is it straight up vanilla server beta 1 or have you applied package updates since then? -- multiple LVM volumes not mounted in Lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527666 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
