You said Ubuntu both times. Which is Debian and which is Ubuntu? It shouldn't be a problem, as long as the UUID is correct. If the partition has been re-formatted since /etc/fstab was created, the UUID might have changed. Verify that the UUIDs match. The blkid command will tell you what the actual current UUID for a device is. For example: blkid /dev/sda2 If blkid returns no output, try wipefs (from package util-linux) to see if there are any residual file system signatures that may be confusing udev/blkid. But the first thing to try is manually umounting the file system in Ubuntu before shutdown. -- .''`.
