[Bug 584050] Re: lucid fsck takes too long

 

yeti, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily kernel folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12-rc2

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  lucid fsck takes too long

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  cat proc/version
  Linux version 2.6.32-22-generic (buildd@rothera) (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) ) #33-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 28 13:27:30 UTC 2010

  mountall --version
  mountall 2.15

  This is not bug 571707; mountall 2.15 solved that really long hang-up
  here.

  fsck using knoppix on /dev/sda4 takes less than a second.
  Lucid fsck occurring every 20 mounts takes one minute 40 seconds when it occurs.

  /dev/sda4 is ext3, a journalled system; if 'clean' it takes less than a second to fsck.
  I suspect somehow lucid partition is being marked 'not clean' and is getting the whole nine yards fsck. 

  This is no _big_ problem, but things are not quite right.
  Perhaps a minor additional tweak of mountall is in order.
