[Bug 930551] Re: System with quota enabled hangs after upgrade to 11.10

[Thomas Schweikle]

Upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 worked. The system came up and ran.
Upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10 worked. The system does not come up complete.

Adding "init=/bin/bash" to the kernel commandline gives a shell and
shows all devices are mounted. trying to boot from this commandline by
starting init, makes the system hang again at the very same point. The
boot-log does not tell about anything usefull, since it is not written.

Removing quota from fstab doesn't matter. The system hangs at the very same point.
Removing dm-0-mount from fstab keeps the system hanging.
Removing dm-1-mount from fstab keeps the system hanging.
Removing dm-0 and dm-1 from fstab brings the system up to login.

As soon as dm-0 or dm-1 are entered again into fstab the same problem again.
There must be something horribly broken with lvm.

It is, indeed possible to remove dm-0 and dm-1 from fstab, boot, then
mount both manually, but that isn't a real option for a normaly headless
running server!
