Public bug reported:
This has only happened in Lucid as far as I know, it didn't happen in
Karmic.
If a device listed in fstab is not found, the machine will hang until
you press "s" to skip that device.
No error message is displayed, which is the problem.
I've had this happen on kernel version 2.6.32-21 through 2.6.32-24.
Basically what happens is when you add a drive/device to fstab and then
the device fails or is removed, the OS just sits there waiting for user
input without displaying an error message.
The only thing it says is:
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
/dev/sda1: clean, xx/xxxxx files, xx/xxxxxx blocks
After you hit "s" to skip the device, it proceeds to boot normally after
displaying "skipping /mountpoint at user request
