This still appear to be an issue as of Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS. Did the bug go away and come back, or has this been an issue now for 14 years?
Getting these errors:- update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.8.0-53-generic W: /sbin/fsck.ntfs doesn't exist, can't install to initramfs (during a "apt install --reinstall amdgpu-dkms") -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mountall in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/838091 Title: should not try to fsck ntfs volumes on boot Status in mountall package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in mountall source package in Oneiric: Won't Fix Status in mountall source package in Precise: Fix Released Bug description: == Regression details == Discovered in version: 11.10 Last known good version: 11.04 I've got a dualboot laptop, and the installer has created fstab entries for the NTFS partitions. But now oneiric is complaining that it can't mount them, and prompts me on boot what to do about it. Skipping or ignoring the error makes the boot complete, and boot.log reveals that it fails due to fsck.ntfs being missing. So, ntfs-3g should symlink fsck.ntfs to ntfsfix or ntfsck, though the latter fails to check my partitions, so maybe ntfsfix would be better.
