After contributing some comments to the thread on aborting fsck during boot, I thought to try Andrei's /etc/rc.local suggestion. While rebooting, I discovered something quite unexpected (to me at least):
The computer on which I did my test is running Jessie. Jessie was installed on it on Sept 26, 2014 at 14:40:58, and has been rebooted ten times since that date. It has been regularly upgraded with all the new versions of debs since then. During boot the screen displayed a message for too short a time for me to memorize it entirely, but it started with: [ systemd-fsck ] and continues with something about "clean" and /dev/sda1. Was there no one in the group discussion who was aware of systemd-fsck ?? Surely, if there was (s)he would have enlighten the rest of us as to this fact and the discussion would have been far less looong. -- Paul E Condon pecon...@mesanetworks.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
