sudo reboot doesn't unmount the system drive cleanly enough? Then I'd call it a bug. And my wheezy kernel is gene@coyote:/$ uname -a Linux coyote 3.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.39-1+deb8u1~bpo70+1 (2017-02-24) x86_64 GNU/Linux Which is not pinned and the machine is updated about 2x a week. -- Cheers Mike, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
