Comment 44 for bug 522197

What has been said above is perfectly right (cf Karl's post) : entries in the fstab that are not marked as 'noauto' and for which the device is not connected cause this hang.
I think that the error message is in fact never displayed on the TTY.

The solution is to press the key 'm', you will then drop to a shell. Launch 'busybox sh' for more confort and then edit you fstab file (/etc/fstab) to comment out the guity line.

It did the trick for me.
