Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mountall

mountall should cause fsck to show progress information (-C 0).

Especially on large FS that take very long to fsck (sometimes many hours) it is 
very important 
to know that the fsck isn't actually hanging and still working.
It is not possible to log in via console or ssh to check the status even for 
filesystems that are not boot- essential.

Plymouth splash screen is disabled as this machine is a server.

This behaviour has caused trouble several times already as the system
was believed to be hanging and unresponsive and got rebooted while the
fsck was still running.
