Does Linux maybe support UFS(1) better than UFS(2)? Are you running ext2fs from Linux? If you are running it from FreeBSD then try making a symlink in /sbin from fsck_ext2fs to wherever you have e2fsck and make sure that e2fsck will be available when fsck runs. That almost certainly means it has to bee on your root partition. (Or just copy it to /sbin). If you do not want to fsck the filesystem at all at startup then set the sixth (last) field in /etc/fstab to 0. --Alex
