instead of having 20 for all of them, set
the first filesystem to 17, the second to 19, the third to
23, and the
fourth to 29.

My first idea was to manually run fsck on each filesystem, one every
couple of weeks. That way they will not all come due at the same time

Take a look at 'man tune2fs' and 'man fstab' for modifying the fsck
order in your system.
Thanks but I did look at those and I was not able to find anything
that would limit the fsck executions to one per reboot. Changing the
order of execution

The sixth field, (fs_passno), is used by the fsck(8)

Every article I have read on the subject has recommended this a good
