[Bug 886414] Re: No 2 Minute pause at login for Server Boot in Ubuntu Desktop

[goto]

This bug is ridiculous. Won't Fix? And no kidding?!?

"I don't care if it is related to retries or a timeout. But if it's decided that in some environment it would be useful for reliability sake to have such timeout, it would be great to improve this feature with some option, like:
- a place where to configure it, enabling the feature be useful in other scenarios, or
- allow the user to skip the timeout, like when fsck fails for some drive."

100% agree.

At least allow to skip the waiting using STRG + C !!!

Keep on posting and commenting this bug. The current behavior is
intolerable.

Title:
  No 2 Minute pause at login for Server Boot in Ubuntu Desktop

Status in Upstart:
  Invalid
Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  SpamapS and Scott Moser made the system to wait a few minutes at the
  login at the expense of Desktop users, for the benefit of Server
  users. I propose that we separate Ubuntu Server from Ubuntu Desktop
  completely. I have received a lot negative feedback about the change
  in 11.10. A related discussion about the problem here
