fsck will run after x boot times or if the system was not shut down gracefully, it also forces a fix of inodes and file system structure.

I know that on at least some systems I've used, if you don't shut down cleanly, a file system check will be performed as part of the boot process (with no intervention on your part). Also, it was about 15 years ago that I had to do this manually. OS X has a disk utilities tool (with a nice GUI), and I guess I just assumed Linux would have something similar. === Gregory Woodhouse [EMAIL PROTECTED] "One must act on what has not yet happened." --Lao Tzu ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
