I'm not 100% sure though, that this is related to the kernel. But mabye init-scripts, upstart, shutdown scripts? Maybe this isn't even directly related to util-linux package itself.
Second problem is that we have no other confirmation of this bug so far. I personally wouldn't like to link this bug upstream without any other confirmation. This bug is pretty big (though no noticeable data loss so far), because ext2 is still a major filesystem and Ubuntu 12.04 is going to be LTS. I really use ext2 a lot because of simplicity. Imho, if it doesn't get fixed in the upstream kernel, I would love to see Ubuntu developers patching this. But I really don't understand that this major bug on a major filesystem is now set to 'Triaged' for the 3.2.* kernel. Sorry. And thanks though so far. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/964990 Title: [Ubuntu 12.04] partitions with ext2 are NEVER cleanly unmounted on shutdown/reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/964990/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
