Hi group,
When my netbook boots under battery power w/o the ac adapter connected
I get this warning msg in the boot window: 'Skipping fsck due to not

How do I fix this? Some option in /etc/conf.d/fsck?

I had hoped to never ever see this error again, looks like my hopes were
dashed.
If my eyes needed a screen saver, this would be burned into my retinas.
Long answer: The reason for the failure is in the build log, but it is never
just above the error message. It is often many 1000s of lines
You say Chaos ensues ... in what way? Further errors, failure to
boot, file system corruption, or...? The problem isn't likely rooted
in the fact that it doesn't run an fsck when the system's booting on
battery, but rather that you have some more pressing problem that
should be addressed.

Of course, if there are serious filesystem structural problems you'll
want to get them solved, but it's either a LiveCD chroot or disable

There's nothing wrong with the filesystem. It's ext2 and requires

Hi, I am trying get a bluetooth headset working with bluez4. most

Ive installed bluez4, the gnome bluetooth applet (2.26) associates with

my 2-cents: Might want to check filesystem integrity too (e.g: fsck,
xfs_check).
