[Bug 765843] Re: Intermittent mount failure after growroot

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package cloud-initramfs-tools - 0.2ubuntu1

---------------
cloud-initramfs-tools (0.2ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * invoke blkid to search for the rescue volume rather than relying on
    /dev/disk/by-label/LABEL .  The by-label entries would sometimes
    not exist while the device would.
  * improve failed boot message
  * update debian/README.source to point at upstream location

  [Neil Wilson]
  * fix race condition that resulted in intermittent mount failures
    after 'growroot'. (LP: #765843)

  Natty 11.04 Final beta

  cloud-initramfs-growroot:
    Installed: 0.1ubuntu1

  Getting intermittent mount failures after 'grow root' on an amd64
  image. About 1 in 10 fail.

  The 'wait-for-root' condition passes, yet the mount still fails with a
  '/dev/disk/by-uuid/xxx: No such file or directory' error.

  It doesn't seem to happen at all on an i386 image.

  These images are launched with kvm.
