[Bug 1429098] Re: systemd[1]: ureadahead.service fails on vanilla kernels, needs Ubuntu kernel patch

[whgiii]

My understanding is ureadahead collects data until you hit cntrl-c to
stop it, but I am not an expert on it, just what I gleaned with my
goolge-foo at 3 am. :)  The key to this "fix" is adding the "/" I was
going through the config files and it looks like when ureadahead is
called from the system at boot time the command used does not have the
"/" mount option. I have a feeling that the error is going to return
without an edit of the configs next time ureadahead is called at boot. I
don't know if this is the correct way to do it as I have not studied the
source to see how ureadahead determines the mount point when one is not
presented on the command line when it is called (the man just says it
assumes root). before I edit the configs I want to make sure that there
is not a setting somewhere that should be changes or if it should be
hard coded in the source. I am working 80/hrs a week right now so I
don't know when I would have time to look at it.

Just my ramblings on the subject. I hope it is of some help.
