Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ureadahead
Stock Kubuntu Lucid, fresh install. /var is on root. One time in four system will boot, other times it hangs after listing amount of shared and non-shared memory. After successful boot, I see complaints about ureadahead out of memory in the kernel log. This is an i7 quad core running in 32-bit mode, 6gigs of RAM and the PAE kernel. Problem goes away after I removed ureadahead files from /etc/init. So ureadahead is sometimes--but not consistently--doing something for which it does not find it'll fit in memory. Its failure is apparently keeping the rest of the boot process from proceeding. Problem goes away 100% if ureadahead is not attempted during boot. ** Affects: ureadahead (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Boot hangs 3 times in 4, ureadahead out of memory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/590963 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
