potato auto fsck
Has anyone noticed any oddities with the latest update to potato's e2fs programs? I upgraded three machines and two worked perfectly; the third, however, will hang upon running /etc/init.d/checkfs.sh. If I bypass the end of checkfs.sh (where it does the auto fsck) with an exit 0 the system boots and runs normally. I've reinstalled the e2fs package and running e2fsck manually shows the file systems to be fine. I haven't had much time to delve into it more deeply but was wondering if anyone else has experienced similar problems. -- Regards, | Upgrade your old Windows machine to Linux and . | experience *real* savings, reliability, and Randy | stability.

Ed: I've noticed the same thing. When booting the system hangs at /dev/hda5 and /dev/hda7 on my system during e2fsck check. If I C-c, the system continues booting normally. When doing shutdown, I get a message that "/dev/hda7" is "busy" and is being mounted "read-only". So far as I've been able to tell, nothing is amiss. I updated Monday, 10/25. Maybe the current update will correct it. I'm downloading as I speak... Eric Wolven >Has anyone noticed any oddities with the latest update to potato's > e2fs programs?
