Bug Description

Karmic -15

When I started the laptop this morning, there was a message that the shutdown was incomplete, or incorrect or some such thing and that a manual fsck was needed. It stopped at one point and needed a Ctrl+D to continue. That restarted the computer and I was back at the beginning, with my root password needed to continue.

I remember a message that the filesystem was in readonly mode, and a slew of indode errors were reported. After all was done, a restart was required and I tried to login, but was returned to the password area. I rebooted in recovery mode, tried to fix broken packages and did an fsck from the recovery console.

Nothing helped.

I'm having the same bug after last days upgrades.
When the system boot i get that error message asking to manually run fsck, after running that (fsck /dev/sda2) and pressing ctrl+D it reboot a boot correctly, at next shutdown it do the same.
Any idea on how to fix this ?

Every time on bootup it complains of unclean shutdown.
