I give up !, i've try it. and it seem the command (e2fsck) is automatically
running when i booting, and it has been fixed.
maybe like this:
/dev/hda2 was not cleanly unmounted, check forced
and when login to X and i switch to prompt (by ctrl-alt-F1)
there is a message like this:
stdin: is not tty
wrong char.set
and in X, the volume control always goes to default setting.
I always have to mixing it to reduce the volume.
and when shut downing, i recently get this message:
[FAILED]
/unmount device is busy
and followed in booting process:
/dev/hda2 was not cleanly unmounted, check forced
Why this power failure become a problem in Linux, and X
I choose Linux cos i think Linux can handle power failure
much better than windows.
well, i'll try to reinstall my Mandrake, if the power failure
still become a problem, then i'll delete it.
Thanx any way, for your help.
maybe anyone could help me, i still hope for an answer.
