Re: ext3 file system



Yes, that's quite annoying: I had a similar problem once, because of hibernation with lenny and xp. Later I had to find out that if you use only Linux-OSs, the problem occurs as well. Why there isn't any warning with the file system not being saved correctly - I would really like to know that!

That sounds like the file system is not being cleanly unmounted by
Ubuntu during shutdown.  You are doing a clean shutdown, aren't you?
What happens if you manually umount the file system prior to shutting
down Ubuntu?
