I have a slightly different problem and not a solution, unfortunately. Perhaps it has been reported under another bug and would appreciate a pointer to such.
Mountall fails with the following error (upgraded from Hardy Heron to Karmic Koala): This error occurs when trying to boot with an older kernel 2.6.24-24-generic, which was working with Hardy. The new kernel (2.6.31-??) does not get very far in the boot process, before it dies. I will submit a bug once I figure that one out. I was hoping to at least get going with a known working kernel, but it seems that is not to be either. Here is the error message: mountall: /proc: unable to mount: Device or resource busy mountall: /proc/self/mountinfo: Not such file or directory mountall: root filesystem isn't mounted init: mountall main process (2025) terminated with status 1 General error mounting filesystems. A maintenance shell will now be started. ... -- karmic - mountall fails to mount filesystem on boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/447747 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
