Compile 'Kernel Hacking' into your kernel. Now you can use Alt-SysRQ-S to sync your disk and Alt-SysRQ-U to mount everything read only. This way it's more likely to avoid data losses and far more important there's no fschk at boot time that lasts for forever :) Check out /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sysrq.txt for more maqic requests. -- Weasel http://www.cosy.sbg.ac.at/~ppalfrad/ PGP encrypted messages prefered.
