Same for me. We have autofs home dirs. eth0 is in /etc/network/interfaces so users have no control over it. For some reason unclear to me, shutdown fails unless I first unlog and then stop autofs and gdm by hand before asking to shut down.
This is very painful, especially because it is difficult to debug: there is no clear documented way to understand the order in which the upstart jobs are shutting down and where is the deadlock (which job is waiting for which, etc.), unless (following the upstart doc) I put additional debugging commands all over the place in the upstart scripts. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/614731 Title: shutdown hangs with wlan autofs/nfs mounted homedirs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
