Part of the bug here is that even after skipping a filesystem, mountall will try and mount it again whenever it can - that's why you see the loop - that was right at the time - but now it's just wrong - a skipped filesystem should be ignored entirely.
But that still doesn't explain why it stops booting entirely :-( -- Loops on mount failure when Plymouth not running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/553290 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
