[Bug 1059471] Re: 2.41 fails to mount root partition

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package mountall - 2.43

---------------
mountall (2.43) unstable; urgency=low


  * Fix a regression introduced in 2.41: parse_mountinfo() doesn't 
    generate a mounted event for a filesystem whose canonicalized
    mountpoint doesn't match the mountpoint specified in /etc/fstab.  So
    we still need to call mounted() explicitly for this case.  LP: #1059471.

Bug description:
  When booting with 2.41, I get a message

    "The disk drive for / is not ready yet or not present"

  but when I drop into a shell for manual recovery, / curiously /is/
  mounted.

  Downgrading mountall to 2.40 allows me to boot again.

  Let me know if you need any more information.
