I would imagine that fsck needs write access to the raw disks in order to do its job, but such access is not allowed under securelevel 2 and above. fsck is normally run very early in the boot-sequence - before the securelevel is raised - so in normal operation that would not be any major problem. -- <Insert your favourite quote here.> Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se
