OK, I'm running the PPA version now. If I touch /forcefsck, reboot, and cancel the scan, it drops me into the shell. When I exit that shell, the system just sits there forever and I have to reboot with ctrl-alt-delete. If I type 'reboot' instead of exiting the shell, it resumes the boot process (remounting root as rw) but eventually a reboot also happens.
I haven't yet tested what happens if fsck fails, rather than being canceled, but there is still a scenario where the system attempts to resume booting after the recovery shell, which can cause corruption. ** Changed in: mountall (Ubuntu Karmic) Status: Fix Committed => New -- mountall tries to resume boot when it shouldn't https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/452196 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
