Thanks - that's good to know - I'm using ext3 for most of my partitions, and xfs for one (home/public) and NTFS for another (W2K). I'm not sure what the xfs is - I don't remember explicitly choosing that. So I guess I can let it skip the fsck without worrying. -- Paul O'Rorke [EMAIL PROTECTED] (school) [EMAIL PROTECTED] (legacy/home) [EMAIL PROTECTED] (for MSN messenger) [EMAIL PROTECTED] (for Yahoo messenger)
