https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=465862 Summary: unplugging external drive has impact on the internal drives Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bluedzins@wp.pl QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- unplugging external drive has impact on the internal drives I spotted this for the first time using OS11.1 so I don't know if this problem is new or not. When you forget to unmount the ext.drive and just unplug it, normally it could cause some damage to this unplugged drive. But it is really odd and disturbing that such unplugging also affects the main system -- on the next shutdown and boot up there are really some problems with unmounting regular partitions. In console I see message (shutdown): cant' lock lock file /etc/mtab~ failed /.......path to dev-disk-by-id........../ Unmounting file system failed and the system is waiting for ages (the partition mentioned above is mounted on boot by dm-crypt). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
