OK - along these lines, here is a question for you all...
My system does the same thing that most people have been saying: "System
halted."
However, right on the line after that, it ALWAYS says, "On the next boot,
fsck will be forced." Or something to that effect - I'm writing this from
a different computer than the one I normally use, and I haven't been able
to turn on my Linux box in more than a few days now so I can't double
check the exact wording...but its something like that.
I umount the cdrom, etc... before I shutdown and what have you, but it
always does that. Is that bad? And, what does it mean???
