Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: e2fsprogs
When a check is forced the fsck process seems to hang. This was what was
displayed on screen:
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16
/dev/sda5 has been mounted 34 times without being checked, check forced
/dev/sda5: 176................. files (2.3% non-contiguous, 48128710/59556......
I left it running four about half an hour but nothing changed and there was no
disk activity the entire time. After a hard reset both sda5 and md0 cleanly
mounted.
This leds me to believe that the boot process will hang on every fsck (as this
happened twice allready, and it hasn't gone successfully yet) and that an
actual check of the filesystem therefore never happens...
Note that sda5 is a normal ext3 filesystem. I also have /dev/md0, but
this wasn't checked when it hanged.
