Comment 38 for bug 106209

I've had this same problem for months after upgrading from edgy to feisty and have been hitting Ctl+D to bypass.

I'm not sure why this worked, but I was having issues with /dev/hdd. It would show up fine in /etc/fstab and in vol_id.

I noticed that if I ran blkid, it would NOT show /dev/hdd. Running "blkid /dev/hdd" seemed to detect it. When running blkid this time, it showed up!

I rebooted to verify things worked and they did... no UUID errors this time.

I guess when fsck runs on boot, it must look to the information in blkid to reference the UUID's/

Anyways, hope this helps people out there. I'm glad to rid this "annoyance".
