I agree with comment #21. This is an important feature, and it's strange that it hasn't been implemented yet. The expected behaviour should be: - If device can be mounted, mount it. - If device can't be mounted, skip it (also possibly log the event somewhere). - Optionally allow for specifying time for the device to go online.
In my case, it would be very useful in cases when you have to use an external partitioning tool to change some non-essential partition on your disk - right now it just fails to boot, leaving you with very primitive tools to make it boot again without that partition being mounted. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/610869 Title: mountall ignores nofail mount option To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/610869/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
