I have been fighting this problem for a while, applying the latest patches and kernel updates only made the system so unstable it was unusable.
Booting the base image from a USB startup disk, the system booted up and shutdown without error. That being the case, I did a complete reinstall, formatting the OS partitions. The system is now stable with error free boot and shutdown operations. The display driver in use is the Nouveau which was installed by default. By having /home on a seperate spindle, all data was preserved without loss. Like Grant, I now am a happy camper. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1170911 Title: umount error messages during shutdown To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sysvinit/+bug/1170911/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
