Is there a safe way to run fsck in run level 3? I have a situation where if I shutdown this system it will not boot until I run fsck to clean up the disk. Also, it is a headless Linux system and if I try to access the system in single user mode over the serial port, I keep getting a new maintenance prompt after every keystroke. So I cannot get into single user mode from the seiral port and I cannot complete my boot until I run fsck from single user mode. Bummer. I was able to attach a monitor and keyboard and enter single user mode from the console. Then I can run fsck and finish my boot. But i do not want to keep physically attaching a keyboard and monitor to this machine and trottting over to it every time it needs a reboot. Any thoughts on how to handle this?
