Comment 16 for bug 431040

I've tested a /var/tmp mount, and this works for me so far:

wing-commander scott% mount | grep tmpfs
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev)
none on /var/run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)
none on /var/lock type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
none on /lib/init/rw type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)
none on /var/tmp type tmpfs (rw)

Giuseppe: could you make sure you're up to date, and uncomment /var/tmp
from your fstab again and try again.

If this is still hanging for you, could you try the following:

 edit /etc/init/mountall.conf
 add "--debug >/dev/mountall.log" to the mountall command
 reboot

This should give you a /dev/mountall.log file - if you could attach
that, that would be appreciated.

 status incomplete
