Public bug reported: We (Canonical CPC) are seeing an issue with today's build of the bionic minimal cloud images. Boot stops at "Starting Initial cloud-init job (metadata service crawler)..." for nearly 5 minutes (booting on scalingstack and locally with kvm) this is with a new kernel, but otherwise no changes over the prior image.
Image (manifest and logs) exhibiting this behaviour @ https://private- fileshare.canonical.com/~philroche/bionic-minimal-20180703/ With server teams's help we have narrowed it down to "Synchronized to time server 91.189.91.157:123 (ntp.ubuntu.com)." taking over 4 minutes. On Kamal's instruction we also tried linux-kvm 4.15.0-1013.13 and bionic GA linux (4.15.0-24.26). Both of which also exhibit this regression. For reference: Kamal noted on IRC that the problem was possibly introduced in the GA kernel and is not specific to the kvm kernel. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete ** Tags: bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1779961 Title: Bionic minimal image boot hang with linux-image-4.15.0-1012-kvm kernel Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: We (Canonical CPC) are seeing an issue with today's build of the bionic minimal cloud images.
