Affects: hal (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed Description: My /boot partition is identified as 'fat' volume, athough it is a mounted and working ext3 partition. The most possible reason for this is that there was a FAT partition before starting at the same sector as /boot partition is now.
