This is a request for an SRU.

This bug prevents machines from booting if home directories are on NFS. My machine was able to boot Jaunty so this is a regression. Not being able to boot is severe.

According to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates, SRUs are issued:
* to fix high-impact bugs.
* for bugs which represent severe regressions

This issue should mostly affect corporate, educational and public users (like libraries). Most home users are likely not affected by this. I can't judge where your main customer base is, but for me this is a big problem.

If the SRU team says "no", I'll just shut up and try not to reboot so much for the next four months.
