Bug Description
Description of Problem
-------
Whenever the system requires an fsck at boot the boot process stalls. Recovery requires one to press "c" to cancel fsck and continue the booting process.
Steps to Reproduce
-------
Wait until the next automatic fsck
Or: sudo touch /forcefsck
It was reported elsewhere that removing 'quiet splash' from the boot options was a workaround but that does not work and all attachments and descriptions in this bug report reflect both those options removed.
My Results
---------------
* I let this run on one occasion for 28 minutes without resulting in a boot.
* I have Mint9 installed on two different boxes and it happens to both.
* If I immediately reboot after a forcefsck all partitions are declared clean
* If I force an fsck the stall occurs again
My attachments should make this more clear.
Ubuntu Bug Report:

https:/
This bug report is apparently closed (?) because it was fixed by version 2.15 of package: mountall.
I have version 2.15 installed. It's implied that package: Plymouth is also involved in this problem so I have included the versions of both packages that I am currently running.
Relevant version levels:
-------
apt version mountall: 2.15
apt version plymouth: 0.8.2-2-1mint3
