Philip, you're not supposed to run fsck on mounted filesystems and
symlinking fsck to /bin/true is a very bad idea.

To demonstrate, here's what happens when I try with an ext4 filesystem:

$ sudo fsck /dev/sda6
fsck from util-linux 2.20.1
e2fsck 1.42 (29-Nov-2011)
/dev/sda6 is mounted.  


WARNING!!!  The filesystem is mounted.   If you continue you ***WILL***
cause ***SEVERE*** filesystem damage.


Do you really want to continue<n>? no

check aborted.
