There are of course other ways to achieve the same thing. I don't particularly like the idea of doing things like this on boot - it is indiscriminately applied to all filesystems, which is problematic as filesystem sizes increase (for any one filesystem). The current record, to give an idea, for one filesystem (many terabytes, & many millions of inodes) was ~1 week to repair... cheers. -- Nathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
