This particular issue has been discussed earlier on this forum, but I haven't yet found any real explanation or fix for it.
I have been using a full HD install of DSL 2.2 for a couple of weeks now and I have also used Opera 8.50 UCI extension almost every time I have booted the system. At some time I loaded it with a line in bootlocal.sh or .xinitrc (I tried both). Now I have removed those entries.
I don't know what happened or when, but now when I try to shutdown I get messages saying "Please mount media containing optional directory", to which I can reply by pressing Enter, and the system finally agrees to shutdown.
Opera850.uci is also reported as mounted/unmounted 2 times on the terminal even if it wasn't mounted at all during my session.
Now the problem seems to have deepened so that I cannot mount many UCI's simultaneously anymore. The same message about "optional directory" appears in X when I try ty install an another UCI. It also seems to be impossible to install any UCI's after they have all been unmounted.
The issue has something to do with /dev/cloop directories. I don't know what they are, as I am not that experienced in Linux. "No such device" is the message...
On my /opt directory there has also appeared mysterious empty directories called /fre and /frree. The shutdown process complains about them too, saying they don't exist.
I tried to load the extensions again and on a different partition, but that doesn't solve the problem.
Besides Opera850.uci, I have sometimes used Sunbird.uci and OpenOffice (the 1.1.0 version).
I hope someone can make sense of this messy description...
Thanks in advance!
