Error on start-up - Ubuntu Desktop 12.04
I am using Ubuntu 12.04 as a desktop operating system on my physical machine. When I start my computer i get an error
"An error occurred while mounting /proc/bus/usb."
Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery
when I press S i get my desktop and every thing works well
Any idea on how to fix this issue?
Thanks in advance

Looks like this used to be an issue in 9.10 and earlier, but a quick google search reveals others having the problem in 12.04 as well.

Try commenting out the line
none / proc / bus / usb usbfs devgid = 125, devmode = 664 0 0
in /etc/fstab

Yeah, it's worth a shot. Make sure you have a live cd hand in case you have to undo your change (though I feel this is unlikely).
