@thodpol, you should be able to hit ESC during an fsck to skip it, just as before. know that regular fscks are recommended. Indeed, in the Hadoop petabyte filesystem, it likes to read and checksum-verify every block in the distributed filesystem every week, to make sure the data is valid, as well as the directory entry.
I managed to trigger an fsck on /home and this time X did block. Which makes we wonder whether there was some underlying problem the first few times -and more importantly,, is a failure here being handled as well as it could? Trouble is filesystem failures are serious problems, and dropping the end user into a recovery shell is about all you can do consistently; even that requires / and /tmp to be working -- boot process isn't paused while fsck runs on partition: boot process is completed with fsck running in the background preventing partition from mounting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439604 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
