I had built a 23.04 server just to explore the stuff that will be coming with the next LTS. Shortly afterwards, I had hard drive failures on 2 22.04 LTS systems (both raid1). I decided to use the 23.04 server (also raid1) for recovery. I created LV's with ext4 fs and copied over the data from the degraded arrays. I tried to change the 23.04 network to bridge using the exact procedure that worked flawlessly with 22.04. It killed networking each time. So I installed 22.04 using the "keep existing disk layout" method. I did not allow formatting of the LV's with data recovered from the degraded raid arrays. Things were looking good after reboot until I added those volumes to /etc/fstab (with fsck 2nd pass option). On next reboot I discovered this bug. I think it could be a showstopper for some folks. I now have all that data on volumes that were reformatted with 22.04 LTS. When 23.10 is released I will explore it on a VM carefully. I definitely will stick to LTS for backup storage, nfs, etc. in the future. I think this bug should be assigned an appropriate importance. I worked around the problem carefully but I can see how it might cause panic and/or confusion for others and result in loss of data.
