I wasn't saying that your bug was due to hibernation. I was saying that if I reverted the os-prober changes that caused this bug, then that would have the effect of resurrecting an old bug that caused filesystem corruption in the context of hibernation. > BTW: > $ sudo fsck /dev/sda5 && sudo update-grub > seems simpler than: > $ sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt && sudo umount /dev/sda5 && sudo update-grub It may be less typing, but it may also take considerably longer to run, depending on what needs to be checked. > Either way something has to give, as continuing to have to go through > contortions every time that natty installs/overwrites/changes grub is > growing very tiresome.

All I'm saying is that simply reverting to the previous state isn't an option. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/683355 Title: os-prober fails to find OSes on uncleanly-unmounted filesystems -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
