(Get the code!)
Quick update, I rebooted yesterday after doing a bunch of updates, into linux kernel 2.6.32-rc3 (my own compiled version) and it hung on bootup again, not being able to mount /home and /local via NFS. It sat there for *hours* since I did the reboot remotely.
It would be really much nicer if mountall would just timeout and continue the boot, even if it can't mount /home or other filesystems. Sure, if it can't mount / or /usr it should fail, but those are also easier to notice. Hanging on NFS mounts not working is painful.
Now, when I did reboot again, I used 2.6.31-11-generic and it booted, so there's something in my kernel config that needs tweaking as well. Any hints? I'm going to try 2.6.32-rc4 in a few, more details when I see what happens.
