For a Windows 8 shutdown and booting (non-wubi) Ubuntu, I get:
bcbc at neptune:~$ head -c 30 '/mnt/$LogFile' | tail -c 4 | od -t x1
0000000 00 00 02 00
0000004
But it won't mount it, except read-only so, in that sense, it's safe.
But it would be a pain for a user trying to boot from an Ubuntu USB and
trying to partition and install, or someone using Grub.
bcbc at neptune:~$ sudo umount /mnt
bcbc at neptune:~$ sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
Windows is hibernated, refused to mount.
Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Operation not permitted
The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume and shutdown Windows
properly, or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option, or
mount the volume read-write with the 'remove_hiberfile' mount option.
For example type on the command line:
mount -t ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sda1 /mnt

Bug reported by Malbo (ubuntu-fr member): http://forum.ubuntu-
fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=10558721#p10558721
HOW TO REPRODUCE:
1) Boot into Windows8, use its "Restart" button
2) From Ubuntu 12.04, try to mount the Windows8 partition:
sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb8 /media/Windows8partition
EXPECTED RESULT:
The Windows partition is mounted in write/read mode.
OBSERVED RESULT:
The partition is not mounted. The output of the command is:
Windows is hibernated, refused to mount.
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb8': Opération non permise
The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume and shutdown Windows
properly, or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option, or
mount the volume read-write with the 'remove_hiberfile' mount option.
For example type on the command line:
mount -t ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sdb8 /media/Windows8partition
Remarks:
- this bug is not present in 11.10
- this bug is severe as it makes Wubi fail on Win8 ( Bug #1042159 )
