Ok, I just confirmed once again that it is not just missing progress 
information.
I left it running for over two hours once a check was being done. Nothing 
happened no disk activity no blinking hd lights. It's just dead with a blinking 
cursor sitting at fsck for sda5 ..... When I reset it reports clean but I get 
an entry with "INVALID HEADER" twice...

As Ernst's last comment describes the exact same issue I am experiencing I tend 
to assume it has nothing to do with "not enough feedback by the application". 
I am not saying fsck is hanging (I don't know that), I am saying the system is 
hanging when a check is being done at boot and it doesn't look like a check is 
being done at all (as a fsck on my machine takes a while and there has always 
been noticeable disk activity during that process).


** Summary changed:

- missing progress information for fsck
+ boot hangs during forced fsck

** Changed in: mountall (Ubuntu Karmic)
       Status: In Progress => New

** Changed in: mountall (Ubuntu Karmic)
