Now since there is 16GB of disc it would be really nice if it could overlap some of the fsck'ing of hte three discs. One disc is EIDE and the other two are SCSI on an Adaptec 2940UW. Obviously I don't want it to do multiple partitions on the same disc in parallel - what do I have to do? I was going to fiddle with the last couple of columns of fstab, but the man page doesn't seem to indicate that I should do that.
