I am testing some kernels for Danny and Thomas on my Thinkpad which runs 
9.1, and if this isn't fixed for 9.2 I'm going to sue someone for the 10 
minutes I lose every time I don't shutdown cleanly (as when testing 
swsusp with acpi where on one kernel it doesn't resume and on the other X 
hangs just after resuming). An fsck gets forced on the rootfs (whereas it 
should just replay the journal), and then you see:

***REBOOT LINUX****

(note that most users miss this, and see the next message offering to 
force fsck again, and if you agree, you will most certainly lose files, 
we have a few cases on mandrakeusers.org who have lost most of /etc and 
had to reinstall). 

You *must* reboot, and on the next boot, you still get an fsck, but it 
will boot up correctly.

Can someone confirm that this still happens on cooker, and either file a 
bug, or I will file it and find a lawyer if the maintainer doesn't fix it 
before beta2 (or else, I won't test beta 2 on my Thinkpad).

Regards,
Buchan
