[Bug 881079] Re: "Waiting up to 60 more seconds for network configuration" at startup

This shows that /etc/network/if-up.d/upstart triggered successfully and
the 'static-network-up' event was sent.  That should cause /etc/init/rc-
sysinit.conf to be triggered very quickly, and result in 'runlevel 2'
being emitted, stopping the failsafe job before it ever displays this
message.

However, since /etc/init/failsafe.conf only stops on 'runlevel', and
*not* as soon as static networking is done, any delays in running
/etc/init.d/rcS or any delays bringing up the filesystem could cause
this message to still be displayed.

So I'll reassign this to upstart, since I think there's a real bug here
in /etc/init/failsafe.conf; either it needs to only wait for the network
or it needs to give a clearer message explaining that the filesystem can
also be the culprit.

Now, in your case:  can you attach /etc/fstab from this system, and the
output of 'ls -l /etc/rcS.d' ?

Title:
  "Waiting up to 60 more seconds for network configuration" at startup

Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  At bootup, while displaying the Ubutu logo, it says waiting for
  network configuration. Then it says: "Waiting up to 60 more seconds
  for network configuration", but seems to be stuck until enter key is
  pressed. Out of the syslog file it seems like it tries to start the
  wireless network already at bootup, but fails since the key to the
  network is only available in my user account after logging in.
