Hello Steve, today I had the opportunity to reboot our servers with NFS shares mounted from fstab. I tried to get a boot.log of a failing boot -- but there is no boot.log.
Wherever the hang occurs, it is before the log files get written (?): When the machine hangs, I reboot into recovery mode (=root fs mounted ro), and find that no /var/log/boot.log, no /var/log/syslog, and no /var/log/dmesg have been written during the last boot. I don't know if there's some magic I need to do to get me a copy of boot messages? (bootlogd is turned on in /etc/default/bootlogd, but does not produce a boot.log. I could still take a photograph of the screen, if that helps.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1118447 Title: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1118447/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
