[Bug 575333] Re: On boot keeps trying to mount "UDEVD-WORK..../dev/null"

[boatjones]

@candtalan:  Could you plese tell me whether you are using GRUB or
GRUB2?  Also, could you tell me if you formatted the drives as ext3 or
ext4?  Does the Ubuntu install share the disk with another OS on other
partitions and you get a GRUB menu prior to booting or is the Ubuntu
install on the entire disk and you boot directly into it?

I recently setup a new laptop with 10.04 with GRUB2, ext4, bootmenu with
Windows on another partition and this laptop does not exhibit the
problem.  My work laptop has GRUB (legacy), ext3 and boots directly to
10.04 with no other OS partitions and has this problem.

This leads me to suspect that the bug revolves around some change to
10.04 and the continued use of GRUB (legacy) and/or ext3 as I upgraded
from 9.04.

I have a spare laptop (although it's an old Toshiba Satellite 1905
currently running 9.10) that I volunteer to the cause for test installs
if needed.  I plan on upgrading my work laptop to GRUB2 & ext4 within
the month that has the problem.  I will post a that time whether that
eliminates the bug.

It would be great to get this bug dealt with.  I don't care a whit about
10.10 and wish to remain with LTS for the foreseeable future as upgrades
just break too many things and suck up too much time to then have to
fix.
