Hi Ben, You have reassigned this to the release-notes, but it is not entirely clear to me what exactly the solution is. I had a look at [MAN 5 E2FSCK.CONF] and my best guess was you wanted us to recommend people to set accept_time_fudge. Though it defaults to being true. ~Niels [MAN 5 E2FSCK.CONF]: http://linux.die.net/man/5/e2fsck.conf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
