I found no further clue in /var/log/fsck/checkfs, here is the complete output: ####### Log of fsck -C -R -A -a Thu Apr 19 20:21:12 2012 fsck from util-linux 2.20.1 /dev/sde1: clean, 241/61056 files, 13476/243968 blocks /dev/sdc1 contains a file system with errors, check forced. /dev/sdc1: 398799/38772736 files (3.9% non-contiguous), 112892386/155062264 blocks /dev/mapper/mydatavolumegroup-mydatalv: clean, 285499/183148544 files, 723935104/732567552 blocks (check in 2 mounts) fsck died with exit status 1 ##### I can see the fsck making progress and after it reaches 100% the system just continues to boot. sde1 in this case is /boot on the SSD, sdc1 is /home on the HDD. The lvm volume I hadn't mentioned are different hard drives, those don't cause any problems and were present in the same configuration on the previous install. > > I wonder what difference can be in shutting down from GNOME and doing it > from the command line, mmm... >:-? > Is is perhaps possible that Gnome is writing out some config files in my home directory during shutdown and the system cuts power prematurely? I also noticed a message saying the device from / is busy during the shutdown sequence, but never /home, while the root filesystem doesn't need the check.
