[Bug 964990] Re: [Ubuntu 12.04] partitions with ext2 are NEVER cleanly unmounted on shutdown/reboot

[Joseph Salisbury]

Does this issue also happen with prior releases of Ubuntu, or just in
12.04?

Title:
  [Ubuntu 12.04] partitions with ext2 are NEVER cleanly unmounted on
  shutdown/reboot

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Using Ubuntu 12.04 (64bit) with all updates. I use only one partition
  (/dev/sda4 mounted on /).

  On *every* reboot or after shutdown and booting again, I get this error message:
  /dev/sda4 not cleanly unmounted, check forced

  My fstab:
  # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
  #
  # Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
  # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
  # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
  #
  # <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
  proc            /proc           proc    nodev,noexec,nosuid 0       0
  # / was on /dev/sda4 during installation
  UUID=7c347aca-031a-4f6b-9213-b136eed5429c /               ext2    errors=remount-ro 0       1
  /dev/fd0        /media/floppy0  auto    rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0       0

  I'm pretty sure, it is related that I use ext2 as filesystem. I
  haven't found anything else, so I guess this problem doesn't occur on
  ext3/ext4. I only found this one:
