** Description changed: - Binary package hint: mountall + Binary package hint: nfs-common + nfs-common version: 1:1.2.0-4ubuntu4 - On my Lucid system with latest updates, NFS filesystems sometimes fail to mount successfully at boot. After a boot where the NFS mounts fail, the mountall process is still running when I log in. Running "kill -USR1 $(pidof mountall)" will then mount the missing filesystems sucessfully. The symptoms are very similar to this bug back in Karmic: + On my Lucid system with latest updates, NFS filesystems sometimes fail + to mount successfully at boot. + + Steps to reproduce: + 1.
