Does the hard drive activity continue? It could be a detailed fsck happening with no output on screen, as in bug #446596 or it may be related to bug #443080. My experience is related in bug #440896 .
I had a similar problem, and the fsck took about 10 minutes before boot continued - if it is doing your 1 TB disk it could be a very long time - my disk is 160 GB. So one time when it seems to die, try just leaving it for an hour or two and see if the boot does then complete. Also, are you using the ubuntu-boot ppa? If so you might want to try the latest version which has fixed bugs for me at least - to quote from the comment in a number of other mountall bugs: > Scott James Remnant wrote on 2009-10-08: #17 > I've uploaded a new mountall package to the ubuntu-boot PPA: > > https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-boot/+archive/ppa > > I would appreciate it if you could install this and try it out. *BEFORE* you > reboot though, could you run "sudo mountall --debug > mountall.log 2>&1" and > attach that to this bug - then after you reboot, let me know whether it > worked or not. > > Thanks -- sometimes fails to boot (with blinking cursor) if second hard drive in fstab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/446720 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
