That's not the responsibility of fsck. The low-level file system checker (e.g., e2fsck) is responsible for showing a tty-based progress bar which is done using ASCII graphics and the backspace and carraige return characters. Or it can give numbers which can be displayed by a graphical display program. Ubuntu has its own distro-unique graphical "splash screen / progress bar" display setup. It's not something which is part of util-linux at all. - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux-ng" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
