Bug#337444: e2fsprogs: fails to invoke sulogin when fsck fails on startup
Hi, Theodore Ts'o wrote: on my system, when fsck fails due to some unexpected inconsistency, the boot process does not halt. It appears as if $CONSOLE were set to some invalid value, and sulogin thus fails. If $CONSOLE is set to an incorrect problem, this is probably an initscripts problem. It's certainly not an e2fsck or fsck problem It is to a certain extent. If $CONSOLE is incorrect, the user will see a message that he is supposed to log in now and manually fix the problem, but the boot process continues normally, mounting the inconsistent filesystems read/write as the next step. I'd have no problem with the boot process stopping entirely if sulogin fails, probably with an explanatory message. Simon signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
