I recently added the fsck hook to mkinitcpio.conf after seeing it being recommended in the forums. I don't have a separate /usr though. Anyway, now after every boot i see: performing fsck on <root-device> It shows up clean, and happens in a flash of a second. So my question is that is the hook supposed to perform fsck everytime? Earlier (without the hook), it used to happen only on unclean shutdowns. -- O< ascii ribbon campaign - stop html mail - www.asciiribbon.org
