The problem happens because /etc/network/if-up.d/upstart now only emits
the static-network-up event when all network interfaces described at
/etc/network/interfaces are properly configured (bug 838968).

At linaro-nano the bug only happens because we're also adding the usb0
interface, as it's common at some devices we support. After removing it
at Panda I'm able to boot it without the annoying wait for more than 2
minutes.

Title:
  Boot hangs at "Booting system without full network configuration..."

Status in Linaro Ubuntu Evaluation Builds:

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I installed Ubuntu 11.10 beta1 64bit on a new laptop. I rebooted and
  it came up nicely.

  After that I did "apt-get update" and "apt-get dist-upgrade" to get
  the most recent fixes and installed some additional software.

  Now I do not seem to be able to boot.

  Fist I see:
  Waiting for network configuration...

  Then I see:
  Waiting up to 60 more seconds for network configuration...

  And then it just hangs forever displaying the following:
  Booting system without full network configuration...

  Nothing happens after that, no matter how long I wait. However, I can
  switch to the console with CTRL-ALT-F1 and log in from there. The
  network is configured with DHCP and it works just fine from the
  console. I do not understand what the GUI boot display is waiting for.

  I installed the system using the alternate install CD to get LVM based
  partitions with full disk encryption.

  I noticed the bug #847782 and removed the "auto eth0" entry from my
  /etc/network/interfaces. Unfortunately that did not change anything,
  it still hangs forever.
