due the respawn of some processes i think they are (re)started again even on shutdown so they are running if the / is remounted readonly and that is why it fails
i think upstart should insure that all processes are killed (also the respawning) at the moment we mount / readonly on halt or reboot my workaround(dirty hack) in the moment is adding a killall5 -9 just before line 86 of /etc/rc6/umountroot that works for me and gives no fsck's on my next (re)boots conclusion for me it's not an NM or Kernel failure its just a wrong way the shutdown procedure is handled by mixing upstart and sysv initscripts -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1073433 Title: Ext4 corruption associated with shutdown of Ubuntu 12.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/upstart/+bug/1073433/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
