Bug Description

I've updated about 1 hour ago Feisty. When i came back to Gnome the pc freezed at any open window.
The same with some windows in KDE session (Using UBUNTU i've also decided to install ONLY kde-base).

After rebooting few times i've watched boot with ALT+F1 and i've seen "File system not clean".

cfdisk.ext3 has given me strange advise, but i've rebooted and dediced to run testdisk.

It suggested me to change head cylinders to 255 because it's 16.
My partition was not ok.
I've changed that parameter, i've rebooted and now looks fine and all seem to work.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. How did you go about updating to Feisty? Was this a fresh install or did you use update-manager or . . . ? Thanks in advance.

It's an edgy updated.
I have updated to Feisty with Feisty Herd 4.
I've done update-manager -d because the first time i've tried with a CD i've got back an error and i couldn't try with cd-rom anymore (I've tried with apt-cdrom and others but nothing).
