The system I'm typing this on gets rebooted daily. (Yes, yes, I know that's bad, but my landlord doesn't like my leaving the system on when I'm not home.) After foo number of mounts, the boot process automatically runs e2fsck on the root partition. However, I mount several other partitions automatically via fstab, and on those I will after foo number of mounts get a warning that the drive should be checked. However, it's a pain to switch to runlevel 1 and manually check all those partitions.
Why should I have to? Why can't the same process (init?) that autochecks the root partition, just automatically check the others instead of warning me? I have only vague knowledge of what happens when a Debian system bootstraps, so please make any answers fairly basic. Thank you. -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Science and Technology Programming, I-Con 18 April 9-11, 1999 www.iconsf.org
