Steve, failsafe only starts after filesystem, so its not anything in the mounting of the regular filesystems:
start on filesystem and net-device-up IFACE=lo The interactions here are difficult to debug because when failsafe stops, nothing clears the message from plymouth, so its entirely possible that failsafe has already exited, but plymouth has not. I agree that /etc/init.d/rcS seems a likely place where things might be stuck. Perhaps failsafe.conf should 'stop on starting rc-sysinit' ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881079 Title: "Waiting up to 60 more seconds for network configuration" at startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/881079/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
