Same problem here, thanks wiz for the tips. After a basic install I put /var onto a logical volume. Everything's okay, reboot and I just stared stupidly why dnscache went crazy saying there's no loopback interface to bind to. :o
IMHO it was quite a bad idea to mount a tmpfs on /var/run before any filesystem comes up, assuming the whole /var structure is residing on root. Since it's quite common on servers to put everything possible onto separate partitions/LVs, it should be expected that /var is one them. >From a security standpoint I don't want the possibilty that logs fill up my root FS. Oh, BTW and it's on a Kubuntu 6.06LTS install on a dual AMD Opteron box, amd64 architecture. -- networking and lvm mounts https://launchpad.net/bugs/37216 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
