This appears to be bug #523484. To the best of my understanding, this describes a feature that is missing when using a separate /var (the ureadahead job will run but not do anything useful). This is certainly a bug, but not something that we are likely to backport to lucid even when a fix becomes available. I think you would be hard pressed to convince any of the Ubuntu developers that it has a major impact on the usability of Ubuntu that systems with a separate /var don't get the boot speed enhancement from ureadahead! Also, you say that people have posted solutions; I've reviewed the bug log and there are no solutions to the bug there. Most of the proposals would work *only* on systems with detached /var, so are not suitable for inclusion in the distribution; the closest thing to a fix is Clint's proposal to add a signal handler and an additional upstart job, but that code hasn't actually been written. So I'm afraid I regard this bug's current prioritization as "medium" to be correct, sorry. Patches welcome, but I think it's unlikely that this is going to be worked on soon otherwise. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
