Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: e2fsprogs

I'm using ubuntu 9.04 (64bit). And I have several hard drives.

One hard drive is routinely checked during boot, but computer freezes. 
Caps/NumLock/Scroll lock leds blinked.
I tried it four times and every time it freezed, but not every time leds were 
blinking.

Then I skip fsck with ESC, umount this disk and manually start fsck. It freezed.
I tried this two times.

Then I boot computer on ubuntu 8.04.3 (32bit) and it runs routinely
check during boot and successfully pass it. I then run fsck manually
too:

sudo fsck /dev/sdc2
fsck 1.40.8 (13-Mar-2008)
e2fsck 1.40.8 (13-Mar-2008)
/dev/sdc2: clean, 7765/59817984 files, 209456512/239258053 blocks

I booted to 9.04 and now I can manually run fsck without freeze:
sudo fsck /dev/sdc2
fsck 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)
e2fsck 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)
/dev/sdc2: clean, 7765/59817984 files, 209456512/239258053 blocks

Now I can't reproduce this bug, but maybe next time when routinely check
is triggered.
