Public bug reported: Binary package hint: upstart
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Release: 10.04 After upgrade from Karmic to Lucid on an nfsroot install, reboot failed. The initramfs loaded properly, but after switching to init, the screen switched to the framebuffer and hung with a message about portmap exit status 1 I then switched the boot to use init=/bin/bash I see that the root filesystem is mounted correctly, read-only I run exec /sbin/init and get hung with a message about plymouth-splash exiting status 2 if I manually remount the filesystem rw, I can then exec /sbin/init and the system starts properly In the end, I added 'rw' to the boot parameters such that root is mounted rw by initramfs (and removed he init= parameter), then boot works properly. As it worked fine in Karmic without this, it seems like something in init is preventing the filesystem from remounting read-write My fstab file: proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/nfs / nfs rw,nolock 0 0 none /tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0 none /var/run tmpfs defaults 0 0 none /var/lock tmpfs defaults 0 0 none /var/tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0 ** Affects: upstart (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Fail to remount root on nfsroot install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578851 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
