[Bug 44157] network drives no longer mounting after update (related to #43962?)

[akshoslaa]

Public bug reported:

Affects: hal (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
When I booted this morning, I got stuck n the Loading Hardware
Abstratction Layer Message for several minutes before it moved on. Upon
entering KDE, I'm greeted with an error about process controller failure
(I can't remember the exact error, I can reboot to get it again if it's
needed).

>From here I discover my network drives (smbfs via fstab) aren't mounted.
sudo mount -a gives:

Could not resolve mount point /media/wwwroot

(or equivelent for each of my four network drives)

I can't find anything in the logs about it, apart from this in dmesg,
which looks suspicious, and seems to be at about the same point at the
long pause during boot.

(+2 lines either side so you can see timing (I assume you know how to
turn those numbers into something useful :P))

Note this dmesg output is likely a completely seperate issue, (given
it's talking about usb devices) but it's the only problem I could find
in the logs, and it seems to be in the right spot. (My usb devices all
seem to be working fine though.)
