I had to power-on my server when I got home (crappy bios), and I noticed after I logged-in that fsck was running non-interactively in the background.=20 Question: If it finds problems that require administrator intervention, how does it tell me if it's running in the background? I like that it runs in the background, it's a 200M drive. Still, I'm curious about this difference from Linux where I have to wait while fsck runs. Thanks, Mike --=20 Michael P.
