I experience similar problem with 10.10 release (and with release
candidate, too). My existing ext4 partition is recognized, but when I
try to open it (from places or in Nautilus) it just disappears (from
both Places and Nautilus). It comes back there after I umount it.

Here's what I see in syslog/messages/kernel:
Oct 10 13:54:05 ubuntu kernel: [ 1629.519655] EXT4-fs (sda2): warning: maximal mount count reached, running e2fsck is recommended

uname -a:
Linux ubuntu 2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Sun Sep 19 20:34:50 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

I boot 10.10 release from USB flash created with usb creator.

When I boot back to 10.04 installed on the PC, the same partition works
OK.

I'm just not sure if it's safe to install 10.10.

Status in Puredyne liveCD/DVD/USB/HD: New

Bug description:
boot from liveCD/liveDVD/liveUSB a few times and the maximal mount count of the permanent hard drive file system(s) are reached really quickly, which causes fsck on next boot of the permanent installed OS.

conjecture: the filesystems get mounted and unmounted several times on each boot, as the live scripts try to find persistent snapshots for home and root, possibly also mount/umount while trying to find persistent filesystems for home and root.  in which case this is not puredyne specific...
