I just had the same problem. After a certain number of reboots, the disks are automatically fsck'ed. When this happened on my large (665 Gig) partition, fsck just hung at a certain, repeatable point. I booted into single user mode and ran e2fsck manually allowed the fsck to complete. Then normal booting continued. I don't have power, power supply, random crashing, etc. or other problems. Since I have this work around and it only takes a few minutes, its no big deal for me to do the manual e2fsck when needed. mark -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
