Package: initscripts Version: 2.88dsf-13.1 Severity: normal
The following problem happens reproducible in a network of 100 virtual machines and a network of 120 "real" machines that mount their rootfs over nfs. When /etc/init.d/reboot is run and "reboot -d -f -i" called, in about 2-4% of the cases, the system will deadlock because the network interfaces are shut down but the kernel still wants to read/write something on the nfs export. The message "nfs server not responding" is shown. Solutions: 1) remove the "-i" from the init script 2) move the parameters to /etc/default/reboot Please raise the severity to important, as the deadlock issue is serious and custom modifications to the init script will be lost on package updates.
