That link of Pascal to the bug 496289 is the followon bug that hit me. You can't say "bootwait" on your partitions, as then you cannot boot. This can only be corrected by an upstream patch, and they aren't going to on the basis that its mountall that chose to break things, not their code. Their stuff works.
Since "bootwait" doesn't work, nobody is using it. Removing it as an option is not going to introduce compatibility problems. So it is now possible, going forward to * have some option like "dontwait" purely for those things you don't want to depend on * test it works * default to having everything bootwait *and let people add something different for their new filesystems* The only question then is: patch 9.10, or push this fix out into the next version. For me, its unimportant: I've rolled back to 9.04. I don't like systems that don't boot. -- boot process isn't paused while fsck runs on partition: boot process is completed with fsck running in the background preventing partition from mounting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439604 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
