hash out the line in /etc/fstab that is mounting that partition on
/var/spool/mail
then you can log and in and fsck -p it

RedHat 4.x system.
I am trying to boot a linux system that has 4 HD's. 3 of them are on in a
raid 5 configuration and the other one is the boot drive with the OS on it.
When I boot the system, I get the message
/var/spool/mail contains a file system with errors, check forced.
The file system in question is the raid and is 500GB in size. I let it run
for several days at boot up but it never came out of the file system check
and the hard drive lights stop blinking after only about an hour, give or
take. How can I tell it at boot time to NOT do a file system check like this
so that I can get into the system and either run it manually or format the
partition again.
Suggestions?
Thanks
Steve
