On boot after improper shutdown, no automatic device check any more

alleluia20 · 2009-09-20 19:49:31

Several times I have to shut down with the hardware because of the f**king intel driver freezing the X server. Until a few days ago, at boot time the / device was automatically checked, but now I just get "enter root password for maintenance" and I have to rum fsck by hand (and sometimes fsck does it in no time without any interaction from me), and reboot again.

Why isn't the device check automatically forced any more? Can I fix that?

Thank you very much in advance.

Same complaint. In my case thunderstorms are the usual cause. The error is the "superblock is in the future" or something like that. In the past "check forced" is triggered automatically. Now it switches to single user mode. I just do "control-d" and reboot and this time "check forced" is triggered. Would be good if there is a way to get back the old behaviour instead of requiring manual intervention. I don't usually turn on the monitor for my server.

You need to downgrade e2fsprogs to 1.41.8-2 from 1.41.9. There's a thread on this somewhere - search for e2fsprogs.

downgrade? omg, why? There is no option for automatic check?
