Public bug reported: For years ubuntu has been plagued by horrible user experience when dealing with usb drives: - user forget to unmount device - fs is corrupted - user insert device back and is overwritten/lost
Luckily solution is finally available: ubuntu should use systemd-mount for all usb devices so they are - mount only when it's really necessary - aggressively unmounted to prevent data loss - fscked before mounting This will lead to much nicer situation where new users will not blame ubuntu anymore for data loss. ** Affects: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-meta in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1627546 Title: use safe mount for usb devices Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: For years ubuntu has been plagued by horrible user experience when dealing with usb drives: - user forget to unmount device - fs is corrupted - user insert device back and is overwritten/lost Luckily solution is finally available: ubuntu should use systemd-mount for all usb devices so they are - mount only when it's really necessary - aggressively unmounted to prevent data loss - fscked before mounting This will lead to much nicer situation where new users will not blame ubuntu anymore for data loss.
