Hi Adrian sent this HEADS UP to current a while ago: ====== Date: Fri, 13 Oct 2000 17:17:37 +0200 From: Adrian Chadd To: freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: HEADS UP: fsck wrappers gotcha As pointed out by mr Sobolev, the fsck wrappers will blindly try to execute fsck_$FS regardless of whether its there or not, and fail if it isn't. This is a gotcha for non-fsck'able fses right now, such as nfs and ntfs. The solution, which I forgot to add in my email, is to set pass to 0. This forces fsck to NOT consider the FS for fsck-on-boot, and should make things quieter. Note that swap / procfs in /etc/fstab already use dump/pass = 0, but this is just to make sure.
