Hmm, it seems to me that nobody really cares about that bug. I think it is a major bug that booting from NFS root filesystems doesn't work with a nearly 3 month old LTS release. I heavily depend on Ubuntu in my open-source cloning system called OpenClone (http://openclone.nongnu.org/) and this bug currently prevents me from releasing a new version.
I don't really know what the problem is. Doesn't my contributed patch solve the problem in acceptable way? Of course, I also want to provide some useful info with this comment too: I think this bug only affects remote filesystems which are already mounted and are only going to be remounted. The problem seems to be that mounted filesystems are immediatelly marked as remounted before the mount process really exits. -- mountall issues with NFS root filesystem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/537133 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
