Paul, and others, this is being actively looked into. There are a number of bugs in the shutdown process, some of which are mentioned above.
Please also, temper the "corrupts your files" language. Orphaned inodes from already deleted files are not exactly corrupted files. Yes this issue is critical because it is preventing one of the critical steps of shutdown from completing correctly, and forcing a filesystem check on reboot. But as of yet, nobody has shown actual corruption due to this bug (though other similar bugs which prevent unmounting filesystems may in fact cause that). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/672177 Title: libc6 upgrade causes umount to fail on shutdown -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
