I usually shutdown computer for night (could probaly use software shutdown, but have not yet studied it). In that case, the disk is checked quite often with default settings, usually in those cases I am in hurry and want computer to start up fast :-). One alternative would be trying to run fsck at shutdown if fsck is due in a few mounts. One could abort that if one wants computer to shutdown fast, but in normal case one could just allow it and then computer would later shut ifself down. Has anyone designed initscripts for that? ps. another issue regarding to mount counts is automounting USB disks with ext3 file system. If one uses automounter, then one rapidly accumulates mount count for fsck. Of course, it is possible to set counter to zero and make fsck only based on time. Any opinions on that? _______________________________________________ Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
