It occurs that the problem did *not* exist after a recent clean install of 13.10 (64bit Desktop CD) on a friend's notebook. While it still happens on my desktop PC.
Differences: On the notebook we used wireless (b43 out of the box) internet during installation. Reboot into new system, login, shutdown is clean. On my desktop I have no wireless card at all. I use wired connection during installation. Reboot into new system, login, using system, shutdown is unclean. I haven't double-checked this though. But it maybe is a hint, that this problem occurs on machines with no wireless possibilities. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1073433 Title: Ext4 corruption associated with shutdown of Ubuntu 12.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/upstart/+bug/1073433/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
