Public bug reported: all fscks are scheduled and run simultaneously. for those on different spindles, that would be great. for those sharing a spindle, this is terribly inefficient. checking all filesystems on this box simultaneously spends nearly a half hour. when sorted out so that simultaneity is only across different spindles, it's done within a few minutes. that's the way it used to be, and still is on other distros.
i can certainly imagine mountall might be intending to have an algorithm that sorts simultaneity by spindles. if it intends it, it doesn't work. even if such an algorithm usually worked well, fstab should still be interpreted such that if the fsck column specifies values greater than 2, then the simultaneity specified in fstab should be followed.
