Bug Description

Binary package hint: mountall

Planned disk check at boot gets stuck into an infinite loop on my T61. The progress % displayed on the boot screen keeps increasing but at a slower and slower pace.

Hitting ESC shows the fsck output, and it looks like it's re-checking the same partition (/dev/sda1) endlessly! Like it doesn't realize it's just been checked. See attached picture.

mountall v2.14

(I opened this new bug because bug #501801 has been closed as fixed.)

Today the disk check actually worked fine. mountall is now v2.15. I guess it may have been fixed as part of but #571707?

Actually, it happened again today, so it's not fixed by mountall 2.15 and not a duplicate of bug #571707.
