I tried upgrading to mountall-0.2.0~boot3 again and the same thing happened -- I couldn't boot. The boot process just stopped at the point where the filesystems would be checked and mounted. It didn't ask to manually run fsck, so I'm not sure what's wrong.

I modified the script section of /etc/init/mountall.conf as follows so that I could collect a log of what mountall-0.2.0~boot3 was doing:

script
    # in case I need to manually run fsck before mountall runs
    /bin/bash -li

    # create a writeable place to put a log file
    mount -t tmpfs none /tmp

    # redirect stderr/stdout of all of this to a log file
    (
        set -x
        cat /proc/mounts
        . /etc/default/rcS
        [ -f /forcefsck ] && force_fsck="--force-fsck"
        [ "$FSCKFIX" = "yes" ] && fsck_fix="--fsck-fix"
        [ -n "$TMPTIME" ] && tmptime="--tmptime=$TMPTIME"
        mountall --debug --daemon $force_fsck $fsck_fix $tmptime
    ) >/tmp/mountall.log 2>&1

    # so that i can copy the log file to a more permanent location
    /bin/bash -li
end script

Attached is the log file.
