Thanks Steve, I just tried the patch, now there are only a couple io error messages shown at shutdown screen, compare to a full page of io error messages.
Here are the steps I have taken: 1. create a ubuntu 9.04 live USB drive from windows using the batch file from pendrivelinux.com (using 3GB persistent file) 2. replace /casper/initrd.gz with the patched initrd.gz, provided by Steve 3. restart the computer and boot with the USB drive. 4. install patch software (sudo apt-get install patch) 5. apply the second part of Steve's patch with the added quote. (see attached file) 6. reboot the following error messages were shown at shutdown screen. ------------------------------------------------------------------ [ 226.987862] end_request: I/O error, dev sdb, sector 31447 [ 226.987915] Buffer I/O error on device sdb1, logical block 31384 ------------------------------------------------------------------ the patch definitely cleared up most of the error messages but not all of them in my case. ** Attachment added: "patch.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28080940/patch.txt -- casper-rw fs not cleanly unmounted on persistent live USB shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125702 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
