Hide Forgot
Description of problem: systemd-fsck does not print anything in the graphical boot screen, and it looks like the boot has hung (for many minutes, in my case more than 10 minutes). Users will very likely hard reboot the system in an effort to get past the hang. This hardboot during an fsck will likely corrupt the disk in a way that fsck was trying to fix. On a hunch I pressed escape to see if anything was printed, and among tons of output saw this line hidden: systemd-fsck[689]: data has been mounted 150 times without being checked, check forced. Ideally there would also be textual updates of fsck progress. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): FC16 rawhide with linux 0:3.1.0-0.rc8.git0.0.fc16 and systemd 35.1.fc16 How reproducible: One time issue, but critical if user hard boots. Actual results: fsck looks like a boot hang Expected results: fsck should print a message in the graphical boot screen and ideally progress updates.
systemd-36, which is pending for F16, prints fsck progress in text in the console. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-13150 The update is still not in the repos because of the Beta freeze, but feel free to download it from Koji to test it. Graphical display is not implemented yet, AFAIK.
Do you know of an easy way to test this? That is, trigger the auto-fsck?
