Ubuntu 10.04 (Server). Drobo connected via USB. Same problem. If I press "s" the system will continue to boot. Putting "noauto" in /etc/fstab as mentioned by Erik does the trick. Additionally, I also put a mount command into /etc/rc.local. Not perfect, but it will do me for now.
/etc/fstab LABEL=DROBO /media/drobo ext4 defaults,noauto 0 2 /media/drobo/home /home ext4 defaults,noauto,bind 0 2 /etc/rc.local mount /media/drobo mount /home -- Boot hangs and unable to continue when automount disk in fstab is not available (Off or Disconnected) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/571444 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
