[Bug 260807] Re: root FS not cleanly unmounted on SSD
hi, sorry for the big 'lag' but i did not have the chance to give intrepid a go until now. it seems - however - that the aforementioned bug is no longer present in the current ubuntu release. at least it did not show up until now, that is, after ~10 regular shutdowns. -- root FS not cleanly unmounted on SSD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260807 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The Intrepid Ibex 8.10 Beta release was most recently announced - http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/intrepid/beta . It contains the 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. It would be great if you could test and verify if this is still an issue. The status is being set to Incomplete until we receive further feedback.

Hi roots, The linux-ubuntu-modules package was actually merged with the linux kernel source package beginning with the Intrepid Ibex development cycle so it no longer exists for Intrepid.

i would go with the 2.6.27 kernel only for the first. i just downloaded linux-headers-2.6.27-1-generic_2.6.27-1.2_i386.deb linux-image-2.6.27-1-generic_2.6.27-1.2_i386.deb linux-restricted-modules-2.6.27-1-generic_2.6.27-1.1_i386.deb from http://packages.ubuntu.com but i can't seem to find any ubuntu- modules package? am i getting something wrong here? -- root FS not cleanly unmounted on SSD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260807 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

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback. ** Tags added: cft-2.6.27 -- root FS not cleanly unmounted on SSD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260807 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
[Bug 260807] Re: root FS not cleanly unmounted on SSD
well there's bad news - i had already tried to find something in the logfiles but to no avail - they do resume just after the kernel-induced reboot after the initial fsck. furthermore, i now recognized that after such crashy shutdown, fsck does not only find errors but also had died with error code 3 each time. i must have read over that before. another thing that already indicated that something is fishy with shutdown is, that after fsck and the reboot, my saved-upon-logoff ubuntu session including evolution, firefox etc. is always in a post-crash condition. nevertheless i'll attach my kern.log, fyi, i initiated shutdown at 7:20, all entries at 7:22 are already from the reboot after (unsuccessful) fsck. ** Attachment added: kern.log http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17054406/kern.log -- root FS not cleanly unmounted on SSD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260807 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

ok, i got a bit further into it. first of all, i found that kernel logging was delayed per - switch in /etc/syslog.conf. i removed that and now kern.log shows some strange news on shutdown: Aug 25 09:10:50 machineone kernel: [ 2013.680949] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Synchronizing SCSI cache Aug 25 09:10:50 machineone kernel: [ 2013.699966] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Stopping disk Aug 25 09:10:50 machineone kernel: [ 2013.700134] sd 4:0:1:0: [sda] Synchronizing SCSI cache [EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@Aug 25 09:12:47 machineone kernel: Inspecting /boot/System.map-2.6.24-21-generic the STRANGE thing about this is, that SDB (!) is the FLASH DRIVE hosting /, while sda is a standard sata2 hdd!? next thing i tried was to simply unplug the hdd (pc off), restart my pc, try the shutdown thing again and having a look at the logfiles. but - nothing! i did a shutdown at 9:27 and the not-cleanly-unmounted issue still persists, but now kern.log simply shows nothing!

[Bug 260807] Re: root FS not cleanly unmounted on SSD
if you're asking for why i am using ext2: amongst one of the recommendations for SSDs i found that using a non-journaling fs would be more convenient, because it reduces the write access to the drive, which - due to the writing-weakness inherent in flash technology - should have an impact on both performance and lifespan. -- root FS not cleanly unmounted on SSD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260807 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

after a bit more of testing, i found that this occurs only on shutdown (gnome shutdown button, shutdown -h now, halt), not if i let ubuntu reboot and power off the system manually before grub starts. -- root FS not cleanly unmounted on SSD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260807 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

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it without more information. Please include the following additional information, if you have not already done so (pay attention to lspci's additional options), as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team: 1. Please include the output of the command uname -a in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture. 2. Please run the command dmesg dmesg.log after a fresh boot and attach the resulting file dmesg.log to this bug report. 3. Please run the command sudo lspci -vvnn lspci-vvnn.log and attach the resulting file lspci-vvnn.log to this bug report. For your reference, the full description of procedures for kernel- related bug reports is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies Thanks in advance!

It would be useful to have a log file from the crash. Can you reproduce the crash on shutdown, then start your computer again and attach the file /var/log/kern.log. If I am right, this file contains all the logs from the last 24 hours and after the crash the log is hopefully written to disk. -- root FS not cleanly unmounted on SSD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260807 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
