ok, these look good. Can you please check the output of gzip -cd /boot/initrd.img-3.16.0-24-generic | cpio -t | grep readlink
it should be something like 150957 blocks bin/readlink If that's not there, then for some reason your initramfs is broken. Does it change anything if you do sudo update-initramfs -u ? What's the output of that? (That shouldn't have anything to do with the boot race hang, though) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1385630 Title: systemd 215 hangs during boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1385630/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
