Created attachment 615259 [details] Picture of screen output 1 Description of problem: Filesystem mounted by LABEL= in /etc/fstab times out and causes systemd to fail numerous services due to dependencies Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 18 Alpha fully updated. systemd 188-3 kernel 3.6.0-0.rc6.git0.2.fc18.x86_64 How reproducible: Have filesystem in /etc/fstab mounted using LABEL= Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use LABEL= in /etc/fstab to mount filesystem on boot 2. reboot 3. System hangs, then times out waiting on dependency. Actual results: Filesystem fails to mount, and systemd fails a lot of services due to dependencies, the result of which is that it drops to an emergency shell, but root user can't even log in. This also occurs before the log is written to disk, so there are no logs to post here. Expected results: Normal boot. The very same lines in /etc/fstab will mount the filesystem normally once the system is booted. Also, changing the LABEL= to UUID= will allow it to mount on boot. Additional info: These are the 2 filesystems that won't mount if using the LABEL=, but will mount using the UUID= --- Start copy --- /etc/fstab --- UUID=0b56ad3b-935f-416c-8578-ed2029ed4f50 /mnt/Drive_J ext4 defaults,noatime 0 2 #LABEL=Drive\040J /mnt/Drive_J ext4 defaults,noatime 0 2 UUID=ec34cd2b-ce66-4f38-add3-87358e640226 /mnt/BlackArmorDrive ext4 defaults,noatime 0 2 #LABEL=BlackArmor\040Drive /mnt/BlackArmorDrive ext4 defaults,noatime 0 2 --- End copy --- /etc/fstab --- With the UUID lines uncommented and the LABEL lines commented, the system boots normally. With the LABEL= lines uncommented and the UUID lines commented, the system will not boot, and numerous services fail These lines will mount the filesystem normally once the system is booted. I can't get any kind of log files, but I have attached a few pictures (not very good ones, sorry) that shows what happens when I try mounting with the LABEL= lines above. also, here is the blkid output showing that the Labels are indeed correct, (Same fstab entries work fine on F17.) --- Start copy --- blkid --- [root@tower20 etc]# blkid /dev/sda1: UUID="fc1d861f-4922-4685-b1b7-ae7df43732f2" TYPE="ext4" /dev/sda2: UUID="66d6d658-b82c-4634-8521-19374413ed45" TYPE="ext4" /dev/sda3: UUID="da9d5aaf-7515-450b-8557-9f89b7e44042" TYPE="ext4" /dev/sda5: UUID="e50f2737-ca35-44eb-95bf-52da99f186b1" TYPE="swap" /dev/sdb1: LABEL="Drive J" UUID="0b56ad3b-935f-416c-8578-ed2029ed4f50" TYPE="ext4" PARTLABEL="Linux filesystem" PARTUUID="e86f40e6-a99c-4c76-987c-a5b782e09fb1" /dev/sdc1: LABEL="BlackArmor Drive" UUID="ec34cd2b-ce66-4f38-add3-87358e640226" TYPE="ext4" PARTLABEL="Linux filesystem" PARTUUID="1b4e87a6-9cca-4f2b-8498-0e92951b5af2" --- End copy --- blkid ---
