Hi, I suspect this is the same bug which causes (caused?) almost the same symptoms the only difference is that the last line is "init: ureadahead-other main process (***) terminated with status 4" ( http:// ubuntuforums. org/showthread. php?t=1514521 -- this was probably bad blood between the ATi driver and plymouth-splash , https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +bug/517770 https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +bug/545536 ).
It's probably a deadlock/gridlock between plymouth processes and upstart. I've read about bugs in the plymouth-splash daemon, alas there's no easy way to just switch to an other mountall daemon that'd help eliminate possibilities for bugs like this.
