Phillip
I am very happy that you are going to take care of this old bug.
1-The message is not in /var/log/syslog but in
/var/log/boot.log of which I attach a copy
2-It slows down the boot process
3-It does not show if grub in MBR is the one installed in the system
4-It shows if grub in MBR is of one of the other linuxes in same external
disk (i.e. Mint 12.04)
5-There is no bug in Manjaro Linux (base Archlinux)
6-The bug occurs also with another Western Digital( 'Passport'),
which I use as storage only (not to boot in this notebook)
7-The bug shows also in a different notebook (Asus A6TC)
8-Should I update the bug report with this information?
Best regards
João Franco

> I have an USB 3.0 external Western Digital MyPassport Essential 500GB

> When I use it with Ubuntu 12.04 Precise (/ on /dev/sdb7, /home on

> Same message with LinuxMint 13 Maya (/ on /dev/sdb6) when ending
