Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.119 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
A basic change in function for fsck at boot time has resulted following upgrade of this package from 0.116 to 0.119. Following deprecation of "touch /forcefsck" earlier this past year for forcing fsck at next reboot I started using a line in rc.local (tune2fs -c 0 /dev/sda1) to set maximum mount count so that in-depth file system checks would never occur unless I specified. I then issued "tune2fs -c 1 /dev/sda1" from a root prompt on the remote systems to force the in-depth fsck on next reboot. The remote systems used to execute an in-depth fsck on the boot partition at next reboot when I followed this procedure. This function no longer works. So far, the only solution I have found would seem to be to make temporary changes in grub configuration on remote systems (via script or via manual editing) when I want to force a file system check at boot time. This seems inadvisable to me. Is there another solution, or can this functionality be restored by further changes to initramfs-tools? -- Package-specific info: -- initramfs sizes -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15M Mar 11 10:03
