Title:
  Trivial errors (incorrect locale in my case) stops the OS from booting

Status in Upstart:
  New
Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I copied the following file [*] to /etc/default/locale and after
  rebooting I received the message

  init: mountall process terminated with status 2
  a maintenance shell will now be started
  ...

  when I enter mountall in the maintenance shell, the OS continued to
  boot

  I replaced the modified /etc/default/locale with the original version
  of the file and it solved problem

  
  /etc/default/locale [*]

  LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
  LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
  LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
  LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
  LC_PAPER=""en_US.UTF-8"
  LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
  LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
  LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
  LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
  LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
