Re: [Bug 571707] Re: fsck progress stalls at boot, plymouthd/mountall eats CPU

Well pardon me. I'm sorry for the wrong info. I just know what took place on
my system. So until you have walked in my shoes, you need to keep your
attitude and that I know all bull crap to yourself.  So cancel my account,
who really cares. Its just a linux distro, life still goes on.

No, I don't believe this issue is present in Ubuntu any longer, see this
bug's
status on mountall, which was flooding plymouth with events. All the recent
noise here was caused by Mint users and Mint users alone. Please Get The

2010-11-14 Thread Richard Postlewait
I can't answer that one; sorry.  I just know it's fixed inMint 10, cause it
came up on my system the other day, took like maybe 3 to 5 minutes at the
most. Then it finished booting. I tried Ubuntu 10.10, before Mint 10 RC came
out. If I'm not mistaken Ubuntu still has the same problem.lol Mint's just
an awsome distro, you can't do better than mint.

2010-10-11 Thread Richard Postlewait
Have switched to Ubuntu 10.10. No issues at all. Thanks. I wasn't having the
problems your listing anyway.

@axel: That issue is not probably related to this bug, and can even be
related to your graphic card driver or plymouth (you did not mention
whether you see the pink background with Ubuntu logo correctly or not).
Please open a new bug (if you can't find an bug for that already) for
your issue since this bug is fixed nearly half year ago.
