I experienced the same boot hangup on a 64 bit 12.04 Ubuntu after the update of plymouth to Version: 0.8.2-2ubuntu31
I had a missing swap partition in my /etc/fstab file which triggered some mountall warning before. Seems like the new plymouth takes this error seriously and the system will not start properly until I remove this not existing swap partition from the fstab file. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1096307 Title: Boot process hang because 'mountall' fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1096307/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
