You don't need to fsck - mount/unmount will do. Unfortunately there's no simple solution to this. The prior situation caused filesystem corruption in the context of hibernation. ** Changed in: os-prober (Ubuntu) Status: Won't Fix => Triaged ** Summary changed: - Natty os-prober fails to

It's to the point that I actually created a launcher script on Natty: $ sudo fsck /dev/sda5 && sudo update-grub And when I get my Maverick partion back I have one on there as well: $ sudo grub-install && sudo update-grub Please chance the status from 'Won't Fix' as this is a critical issue tha

As did I. My grub is installed from Maverick & slightly customised, so after I am able to get back into Maverick I need to reinstall from Maverick as Natty has overtaken grub during the update. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to U

Still occuring. I've been following 672177 and applied all the 'fixes' there. However the most recent update to 2.6.38.5-generic on natty reinstalls grub2 and again finds no maverick partition. fsck of the maverick partition (from natty) is still necessary & have to reinstall grub2 from the maveric

Same issue, same relevant error messages, same solution (fsck) on my system today that was updated to 2.6.37-12-generic #26 (I only boot into Natty ever occasionally). Re: comment #3 (Colin): I'm confused by "Unfortunately, there is no way to mount an ext3 filesystem that requires recovery"; my Ma

Renate, here is what you need to do to work around the problem. You will need to know wher hardware device Maverick is installed on, e.g., /dev/sda2 - yours may be the same, or it may be different. Then, when booted into Natty, run command "sudo fsck /dev/sda2" <== Maks sure to use the correct dev

I am starting to make some headway on my os-prober / grub2 issue. Today, there was a new kernel for Natty. When it installed, it gave a grub2 syntax error. I got around the error by running install-grub, which ran without error, but again failed to detect Maverick on the other partition. When I re
