Public bug reported: Binary package hint: usplash
After updating to karmic each time I boot my Acer Aspire One cannot mount /home during boot (with Jaunty I did not have this problem). /home is located on a SD-card: in fstab: #UUID=9648ab61-a70a-4dc1-9a50-851404098820 /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home ext4 relatime 0 2 (it does not matter whether I use /dev or the UUID) It gives a warning instead that it is unable to find the device and asks to press esc to drop to a shell. mount -a in that shell gives a similar warning that it cannot find the device pressing ctrl-D after issuing this command, resumes boot process and ... magically it also mounts the SD-card without a problem. It looks like that in the new boot procedure the call to mount all devices is given before SD-cards are initialized, or it could also be that the call is too early with respect to the time a SD-card needs to be able to respond after booting. It looks also a bit like bug 290153. Hope this can be fixed soon, or that someone knows a workaround!
