[Bug 1694879] [NEW] Chrome would not start. reboot displayed line fsck clean. reboot proceeded and came back with some prompt that indicates a fsck needs to be done. Therefore it was not clean to begin with and thus no warning, or indications that anything had gone wrong until after a reboot had started. fsck is realativly fast, compared to a reboot or startup, but does add time. I might rather clean uo the files when shuting down or rebooting, or in the middle of doing something like starting chrome when it does not start. ps. I have not figured out what causes the file to get corrupted, but it happens every few hours of human computer time. for example, a long day at the computer, and there are a few times of fsck. a brief evening session and probably not for a couple of days. My suspicion is that some routine/s is/are not shutting down correctly.

Public bug reported:
16.04 gets a messed up fs, so that fsck has to be run every few hours. symptom is other SW packages don't run properly. re-boot exit says clean. But upon re-entry, fsck is needed.
Would like to see a warning, and choice, upon exit, that the fs is messed up and would like to fix it now or when re-booting, or re-starting the system.
ps. fixing the origin of the messed up fs is preferred, but that seems to be too far out...
