Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: upstart
On up-to-date Lucid, my box shutdown uncleanly, leaving an ext4 root
filesystem with errors. Bootup reported that / had errors, but did not
present any options, such as fixing them or dropping in to a console...
boot simply stopped. I tried to reboot and jump into single user mode,
but grub did not allow me to get to a prompt or the menu (no pause long
enough to jump into one)
Eventually, I had to boot a live Lucid CD and manually fsck the drive.
Upon fixing the drive errors, bootup ran successfully.
** Affects: upstart (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
