Yes. I just had things to do, but instead spent 20 minutes waiting for my PC to start up. I'd deeply appreciate I had the option to let it fsck when I walk away from the PC so I can always work when I walk to the PC. It could offer to fsck on shutdown a few days or mounts before fsck. After most users of disks are dead and disks synced, it could wait for yes/no answer for a few seconds while allowing the user to cancel the fsck for fast shutdown or fsck immediately. It could even have a configuration option for which I prefer it to do if I do not respond. Maybe some magic to see if I am on battery, failing UPS, or well supplied in for power (maybe configurable command it could execute for exit code to tell it what to do, /bin/true or false if no magic required) would be nice, but not mandatory. It would also be nice, but not mandatory, if the GUI desktop could offer fsck instead of falling to text mode question. Create some flag file or other flag to tell there is no need anymore to ask the user in text mode. _______________________________________________ Pkg-sysvinit-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-sysvinit-devel
