In my journalctl
, I see the following messages.
Requested transaction contradicts existing jobs
mount has 'stop' job queued, but 'start' is included in transaction
There seems to be issues unmounting these two partitions during shutdown:
- /mnt/install (referred to as mnt-install in the log below)
- /mnt/data (referred to as mnt-data in the log below)
How can I fix this, so the partitions are successfully unmounted during shutdown?
I believe these errors prevent my laptop from shutting down. The machine freezes with a black screen, and I have to press and hold the power button to turn it off. I've noticed that when the machine shuts down normally, these messages do not appear in the journalctl
log.
Here is an excerpt of the log...
