Title:
  filesystem mount failures during boot halt boot with a blank screen

Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  A recent kernel bug caused mounting of efivarfs to fail in some cases.
  When this happened the boot simply stopped with a blank screen,
  providing no information as to what went wrong. This obviously isn't
  optimal. If we're unable to continue booting we should at minimum
  display a message to the user providing the reason.
