I will assume that you are using ext2fs.
man "tune2fs"
OPTIONS
-c max-mount-counts
adjust the maximal mounts count between two filesystem checks.
I would assume that if your root partition was /dev/hda2, and (as root) you
issued a command such as:
tune2fs -c 0 /dev/hda2
it would set the maximal mounts count to zero, and the filesystem would always
be checked.
I have never done this myself (fsck takes way too long ;>) but it sounds
reasonable given the man page.
