The > proper solution to this is to simply specify -p -y. With -p most of things which need the -y flag are considered fatal and fsck will exit. Thus this is not a solution, it still would require me drive down there to run the fsck manually. What I'm searching for: - run check for the news file system only if it is not clean, and all problems fixable by fsck will be fixed - all other file systems are fsck'd normally (with -p, without -y). This would allow me to reboot the system without forced fsck on news file system (15+ minutes), and will allow the system to reboot automatically in case of panic. -- Heikki Suonsivu, T{ysikuu 10 C 83/02210 Espoo/FINLAND, hsu@clinet.fi work +358-0-4375209 fax -4555276 home -8031121
