Bill,

My initial thought is that the CMOS battery is failing.  Afterall, the
Lenovo T61p dates back to 2007.

If there were a problem with fsck, I would think that it would be seen
by lots of people on lots of different platforms.

Regards,

Subject: Superblock last mount time (<date> now <date>) is in the

Hi everyone

I am running SL6.2 64bit on a Lenovo T61p.  We don't always set the date 
to the current date and sometimes the date is in the past.  If the year is 
2010 - 2012 I get the following message at boot up.

Checking filesystem
/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root: Superblock last mount time (Wed Oct 30 
12:11:30 2013,
                  now = Sat Oct 30 06:27:50 2010) is in the future.

/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY: RUN fsck MANUALLY.
                                                                           
                                             [FAILED]
*** An error occurred during the file system check.
*** Dropping you to shell; the system will reboot
*** when you leave the shell.
Give root password for maintenance
(or type Control-D to continue):

This looks to me like a bug in fsck.  I can work around the boot up 
failure by modifying rc.sysinit to run fsck with the –y option.  
Alternatively I have created /fsckoptions with –y (this gets removed by 
rc.sysinit after boot up).

I would appreciate any other suggestions on how to work around this 
problem.

Thanks
