[Bug 874989] Re: cgroup mount point in fstab causes boot process to hang

[Steve Langasek]

It's certainly possible this has been fixed in 12.04, though it was
definitely not due to any changes in mountall. Marking as resolved,
anyway. If someone can reproduce this with 12.04, please reopen and
provide the requested information.

Title:
  cgroup mount point in fstab causes boot process to hang

Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I did a release-upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 and noticed boot process
  hanging at 'init: Handling mount event'. I didn't wait for more than 5
  minutes to see if it ever proceeded from there. As a temporary
  solution, I went into recovery mode, selected the remount option and
  resume normal boot. Eventually I just tried removing the cgroup mount
  point ( cgroup          /cgroup         cgroup  defaults        0
  0 ) from fstab, did a normal mode boot, and it works.

  The behavior is reproducible. Just add a cgroup mountpoint in fstab
  and try booting.
