Actually, you will still get the fsck every 20 boots or after 180 days. This is independent of ext2/ext3 and has to be changed with 'tune2fs'. I recommend to disable the check after 20 boots (tune2fs -c 0), but leave the check after 180 days. You will never now what bugs in the kernel corrupt your fs, so doing a check ever 1/2 year isn't that bad. Or change it to be a check after a year, or so.
