Bug Description
Added to /etc/fstab one sshfs share (which cannot be mounted because of server unavailability). System fails to boot, by saying that "mountall" failed, so my home cannot be mounted. I don't understand why the home cannot be mounted (I don't have a separate home partition), but the system stucks.
PS It took my some time to find how to report this bug. Apparently this link has been put away on purpose, in order to force users to report ubuntu bugs from ubuntu. What happens if I cannot boot ubuntu because of a bug? We go back to M$, where you needed internet in order to install ... welll ... the connection to the internet.
