The error appears to be that blkid does not detect the partition correctly and findfs checks against blkid.
blkid fails to report the UUID, which is available e.g. through vol_id and additionally says that it's a ntfs partition! # fdisk -l /dev/sda Disk /dev/sda: 61.4 GB, 61492838400 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7476 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 7 56196 83 Linux /dev/sda2 8 71 514080 83 Linux /dev/sda3 72 7476 59480662+ 83 Linux # blkid /dev/sda1: TYPE="ntfs" /dev/sda2: UUID="f52f2bea-f734-479d-a53a-4a86a9972b19" TYPE="swap" /dev/sda3: UUID="88c84c55-6140-4fe4-ab56-66e6d9e1532a" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" /dev/mapper/sda3: UUID="88c84c55-6140-4fe4-ab56-66e6d9e1532a" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" /dev/mapper/sda2: TYPE="swap" UUID="f52f2bea-f734-479d-a53a-4a86a9972b19" /dev/mapper/sda1: TYPE="ntfs" -- findfs/blkid reports incorrect info / update-grub fails to resolve UUID https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110138 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
