[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, 在 2006-04-30日的 01:27 +0400，Sergey Matveychuk写道： > Could you explain me please why we have the lines in /etc/rc.d/fsck script? > > echo "Starting file system checks:" > if checkyesno background_fsck; then > fsck -F -p > else > fsck -p > fi > > I don't understand a "-F" magic here. Sometimes, if there is some inconsistency that background fsck can not fix properly, it would mark the file system as "can not fsck in background". On the next boot, a fsck -Fp would check it in foreground and fix the problems. Therefore, we have to do a "fsck -F -p" when background fsck is enabled, if all file systems can be checked in background then it is essentially a no-op.
