Public bug reported: I installed Ubuntu 9.04 with ext4 file systems from scratch. Things were working fine. But suddenly in last 5 days, my entire file system is turning readonly at random. Only cure is to reboot and lose all my unsaved work. After reboot, things work properly for another 8-10 hours before the damn file system turns readonly again!!
Has anyone tested this ext4 filesystem thoroughly? I saw a number of references to this - but everyone else is blaming it on 64-bit or RAM issues. My machine is in perfect condition. It has two other partitions where it runs Windows XP for days without any issues as well as previous version of Ubuntu for days without any issues. If this issue is not going to be fixed months after release, I will have to revert back to previous version of Ubuntu or back to XP. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Ubuntu 9.04, 32-bit ext4 file system suddenly becomes readonly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/400531 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
