After a specified number of reboots GNU/Linux checks the filesystem for consistency even if the box has been shutdown properly. This can take some time, especially on large partitions. You can set the interval with tune2fs. I would always recomment these 2 sources of information: 1) The Mandrake reference manual. It's well written and chapter 13 on trouble shooting is invaluable for newbies! You should find it in HTML format on your hard drive: /usr/share/doc/mandrake/en/ref.html/index.html 2) http://www.mandrakeuser.org It is written for newbies and I've always found it to be very readable. .
