[Bug 125702] Re: casper-rw fs not cleanly unmounted on persistent live USB shutdown

[James Kingdon]

Looks like I've run into the equivalent problem after doing a full
install onto a USB stick (I got frustrated with live/persistent
approach). After any shutdown -h the system reports that the root fs was
not cleanly unmounted and does an fsck & reboot. I'll try adding a
sync/sleep to /etc/init.d/umountroot and see if that helps.

Out of curiosity, why remount read only as opposed to just unmounting?

Regards,
James.
