As a matter of fact I don't think the mountall script should be run before checkfs. fsck will fail when run on a mounted volume. The problem here is not that the volume isn't mounted, it's that the volume isn't available yet as a device.
For me the solution has been to build the drive in the PC and attach it to an ATA connection, instead of using it as an USB device. The USB HD case I was using gave some other problems as well, it would sometimes cause conflicts with other USB devices. -- Checkfs fails on USB partition because initialization isn't finished yet; prompts on every boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182616 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
