Title:
  part of fsck error message is rendered offscreen during startup

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu release: Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS
  plymouth version: 0.8.2-2ubuntu2.2

  On bootup, I received the Hungarian equivalent of the following error
  / prompt text:

  "Errors were found while checking the disk drive for /
  Press F to attempt to fix the errors, I to ignore, S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery"

  Now the big problem was that the second line of the above text is
  significantly longer in the Hungarian translation, so "Press F to" and
  "recovery" were clipped off on the left and right side of the screen.
  Which left me really clueless about which button I should press to
  attempt fixing the error. In the end I successfully googled up the
  above English equivalent of the message to get the answer, but this is
  certainly not an example of good usability...

  So either the loading screen should be able to render similar messages
  with automatic line breaks or (less elegant solution) someone should
  put linebreaks manually into all message texts. (I mean: into the
  original English messages. because, I guess, translators won't start
  to put any linebreaks when their translation doubles the character
  count of a single line.)
