Deny. The system keeps track of how many times it has been rebooted, and
every so often, it will insist on doing a check (fsck) of filesystems. This
is a normal part of the system's operation, not a problem. (The near-full
size of / is a problem waiting to happen, though ... this behavior just
isn't an example of that problem kicking in. GIve your partitioning, you're
headed for a situation where the system will soon fail to write logs, mail,
print spooling, etc.)
