This patch was worked with upstream and even merged in systemd master. Howwever, after a month, Lennart decided to revert it because he strongly thinks that no feedback on fsck is needed because "everyone have fast SSD disks". (frustrating experience after working for a good 3 months getting upstream agreeing on the design and doing review first). Martin Pitt tried to push it again but there was no way to discuss apparently.
We decided that it wasn’t acceptable 5 years ago, especially for desktop and server users, to sit in front on a black screen for minutes in case of spinning disks because a fsck is happening without any feedback that things are progressing (with the risk of the user forcibly shutting down his machine, thinking the boot is stuck). Has anything changed in that regard? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1880250 Title: Ctrl-C message displayed without any actual disk check To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1880250/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
