[Bug 125702] Re: casper-rw fs not cleanly unmounted on persistent live USB shutdown

[Ben Greear]

I built a custom 12.04 with some added kernel patches and added a few
packages (and removed others).

It generally seems to work fine, but at some point, I started seeing
errors about /dev/loop1.

It seems this is the casper-rw file, and it is not checked by fsck on
startup.  Why not?

I put the usb stick in a different machine, manually ran fsck on the casper-rw file, and
it found and fixed a bunch of errors.  Now the usb key boots up fine again, but I'm worried
that this will happen again...

  When shutting down gutsy tribe 2 from a persistent usb drive, I get a
  "failure" in umounting local filesystems.  Running e2fsck on the
