I'm afraid I can't provide a screenshot, but I can confirm that the bug happens. I've had to boot into an alternate installation after seeing fsck run gazillions of times. It even does this after booting with init=/bin/bash and manually fscking the filesystems. The diagnosis above of timezone issue

Well, if this is the correct behaviour, then I still wonder why the fsck loop lasts so long. The first time it happened to me I observed the same messages pass on the screen for at least 5 minutes. I resisted the temptation to press the reset key, but I suspect that most users would have pressed

A kludgey fix is to have in /etc/e2fsck.conf something like: [options] buggy_init_scripts = 1 The trigger for this seems to be an incomplete/faulty restore of the syetm time from the hardware clock before running the fsck -a. To the best I can see, hwclock is not being set/corrected at all befor

The fsck failure is caused by the superblock's last mount time being into the future. The message printed is fsck repeatedly complaining that each of my 3 partitions has that last mount time in the future. I'm in a GMT-04 timezone, and the time difference being printed by fsk is exactly those 4 hou

I can't see anything in the code that would cause fsck to loop in case of failure, it should instead cause mountall to exit and present you a shell. If possible could you get a screenshot (if in a VM) or photo of the screen as mountall loops over fsck repeatedly. Thanks ** Changed in: mountall
