Look in /etc/rc, it runs fsck -p, which parses /etc/fstab to find which filesystems in which order to check/repair. Also, if filesystem is trashed harder, than it may be without hardware/software failures, then fsck -p will not repair it and ask for operator intervention. I used to insert "fsck -y /dev/sd0..." in /etc/rc, if "fsck -p" didn't help; though it seems to be undesirable (note, that you usually even don't have place to store message about rough filesystem cleanup :-( ) > Rashid -- Igor
