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!
