gparted fails to make sure disk is unmounted before fsck
Last modified: 2008-04-15 20:23:14 UTC
I just used gparted to resize a reiserfs partition. After the resize operation is complete, gparted automatically runs "reiserfsck --y --fix-fixable" on the partition. However, as soon as the resize operation completes, some process (Gnome's automounter I presume?) mounts the newly-resized partition automatically, just before gparted starts the fsck. Then gparted proceeds to fsck the partition even though it's mounted (because of the --y flag). Obviously fscking a mounted partition is a bad thing, so gparted should make sure the partition is not mounted before running its auto-fsck.
Why don't yu try the latest version ?????????????? 0.3.3
