Right now I've got a server running FreeBSD 4.11. My question is, is there a way to automatically run fsck on a system reboot, without having to go through the process of sitting at the computer, changing the run level, etc, etc. Clearly it's beneficial in a work environment to be able to wait till night hours to run such operations, but I personally have no desire to hang around the office until midnight just to run a file system check. I know on any Windows machine this is easily accomplished by running chkdsk and answering "y" when it prompts if you want the system checked on the next reboot...you can go home, wait till midnight, and reboot the system, it will automatically check itself and come back online. Can this be accomplished in FreeBSD?
